Description
Entering into a contract to obtain services, software, or other items can present both opportunities and risks. Signing a contract without carefully reviewing and negotiating the terms can result in unpleasant surprises for an organization. The contracting process is an opportunity to set up a project for success. This session will consider common issues and considerations for entering into a contract, including:
- What questions should be asked of a vendor prior to entering into a contract
- What HIPAA-based terms should be included in a contract
- How can risk or responsibility be allocated in an agreement; and
- What guarantees should be offered by a vendor
