New Webinar: “Managing Third-Party Risk: Compliance and Cybersecurity”

Cyberattacks, ransomware, supply chain shortages, privacy breaches, and regulatory scrutiny have put third-party risk management firmly on the healthcare compliance agenda. Weak third-party diligence can lead to significant risk and data exposure, making effective oversight and governance an important part of managing third-party relationships.

They will examine types of third parties, regulatory and compliance requirements, the TPRM program lifecycle, coordination among internal stakeholders, and governance oversight, including board-level reporting and escalation protocols.
