This final podcast of the Practice Security series is not about guarding the borders of Maryland or Idaho. It is about the fact that physicians have more of their personal information in public databases than most professionals. Additionally, since it's assumed that they have more money than most other Americans, physicians are targeted in schemes that attack them both at their personal financial level as well as the improper use of their medical unique identifiers. Find out how to guard yourself whether you're from Idaho or Maryland.
