Confused about what the Red Flags Rule means for us in the veterinary community?
Well we have designed a simple document and training package to help you be
compliant with the new rules.
The ruling came down in May 2009 that the Red Flags Rule DOES apply to the
veterinary industry therefore all veterinary clinics must comply with the Red Flags
Rule. You can do this by having a written protocol covering how you will protect the
financial and personal information of your clients as well as a checklist to look for "Red
Flags" and staff training-
We have discussed this concept of confidentiality somewhat in our HIPAA section of
regulatory control, but this is the new law and specific regulation and requirement
coming from the FTC (Federal trade Commission) that is to protect personal
information from identity theft.
All Clinics Must Have a Written Protocol in place and staff training
completed and documented by November 1, 2009 Time is running out!
Get your training in place now!
Urgent Update May 1, 2009:
Identity Theft: FTC's "Red Flags Rule" Summary update :
Veterinary clinics are covered under the FTC Red Flags Rule and must
become compliant .
Update August 1, 2009:
The FTC has yet again delayed enforcement of the "Red Flags" Rule
until November 1, 2009 to enable the banking industry time to adjust
their protocols. This gives clinics a little more breathing room to get
those documents and training in place!

since I know you love this time of year) Go Reds and go Doc C! "
Dr. Richard, Boston MA
"Wow Doc!! I was so relieved that you came to do the set up at the clinic for me. And I know we
could have done the presentation using the great tools you developed but it just went so
smoothly and was so great having you there to answer all of our staff's questions. Guess I
shouldn't say this but I would have gladly have paid 10 times as much for this peace of mind!
Thanks again Doc"
