Red Flags Rule
    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 June 1, 2010

    What others are saying:

    "Doc thanks so much for this new program! Once again you have provided an easy
    affordable solution to a regulatory requirement for our clinic. Can't say enough about the
    ease of use of this too! Thanks Doc!"
    Dr. Karen L, Philadelphia PA

    "You hit a grand slam with this one Chery thanks! (thought I would use
    that baseball analogy 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"
    Dr. Michael G., Atlanta  GA

    Dr. Leslie, Grand Rapids MI

    October 30, 2009 Update:

    New Update- June 1, 2010 RFR deadline extension:

    OK folks- we have gone to the FTC for further clarification of the
    October 30th notice and it appears we do get the extension however
    we are encouraged to continue to get the forms and training in place as
    investigations will be ongoing.

    So again trying to take the confusion out of regulatory control:

    Updated information on compliance deadline for veterinary practices:

    We have seen several extensions of compliance deadlines for the Red
    Flags Rule. The latest announcement came in late on October 30, 2009
    that the FTC once again is extending the deadline, this time to June 1,
    2010 (don't stop reading here!!!) There was much confusion when this
    new announcement was made on Friday and once again we went back
    to the source for clarification.

    The extension notice stipulates two things:

    1) Attorneys are not subject to the Red Flags Rule
    2) All agencies investigations into Red Flags Rules and Identity Theft
    cases will continue unabated (are not affected by this extension)

    The reason for the deadline change is the request by the legal
    profession to present their arguments that the RFR does not apply to
    them .Congress asked the FTC to extend the deadline to allow the legal
    profession to present its arguments.

    However to clarify what this means for the rest of us it still means we
    should be taking steps to be compliant; and although the new deadline
    is indeed verified as June 1, 2010 we should continue taking steps to
    be compliant as this extension does not stop investigations by other
    agencies.

    Here is the critical text from the FTC:

    “On October 30, 2009, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia
    ruled that the FTC may not apply the Red Flags Rule to attorneys. Today’
    s announcement that the Commission will delay enforcement of the
    Rule until June 1, 2010, does not affect the separate timeline of that
    proceeding and any possible appeals. Nor does it affect other federal
    agencies’ ongoing enforcement for financial institutions and creditors
    subject to their oversight.”


    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!



    "Always love your products. Congratulations on another winner!"
