January 22, 2026: Healthcare privacy laws just got flipped on their head, and most leaders don't realize it. Privacy Law Attorney Helen Oscislawski, Founder and Managing Partner at Attorneys at Oscislawski, reveals how information blocking rules fundamentally changed the game. But here's the twist: this shift is creating massive unintentional risks. Helen shares why even she had to escalate to legal when trying to access her own mother's medical records as a proxy, exposing the gap between policy and practice. From consumer apps that aren't actually HIPAA-compliant to de-identification mistakes that could trigger lawsuits, this conversation uncovers the privacy paradox every healthcare leader needs to understand right now.
