  2. Philosophy and Approach to Privacy • Six key concepts drive the project philosophy: • Primary focus on business drivers, secondary on regulatory drivers • Privacy and security programs should be well coordinated (information protection) • Good faith efforts and documentation are essential to demonstrate compliance • Approach privacy as a series of manageable implementation projects • Integrate privacy and security programs into existing organizational structure and reporting realities • Partner compliance and business resources • The approach recognizes that, beyond legal and regulatory requirements, information protection is an emerging business imperative, whether it’s employee, patients, members, clinical and/or corporate information

An Approach – Implementing a Privacy Program • Assessment vs. Implementation • Projects should be developed by teams and refined with the business people/department to meet your organization’s business needs, processes and environment • An “implementation” approach can be broken down into the following phases: • Project Organization and Impact • Program and Project Structure Refinement • Detail Planning/Rollout • Implementation
