Julie Glasgow doesn't use hyperbole lightly.

With almost 30 years in healthcare and years of HIPAA compliance management, she has seen plenty of resources come and go.

Her assessment of Kardon Club: it changed how she does her job.

The combination of monthly hangouts, the Help Me With HIPAA podcast, PriSec Boot Camp, and Ask Murphy gave her a level of confidence and capability that years of experience alone hadn't provided.

For privacy officers, security officers, compliance managers, practice managers, and the IT providers who support them — this is the resource built for exactly your role.

From Uncertainty to Confidence: One HIPAA Compliance Manager's Journey with Kardon Club

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KkprJa13wSM

"I went from thinking I knew it — to feeling confident that I actually do."

Julie Glasgow. HIPAA compliance manager. Almost 30 years in healthcare.

That shift didn't come from reading more regulations. It came from having a place to ask questions, a resource she trusts for answers (Ask Murphy), and monthly hangouts where she learns something new every time.

Confidence in HIPAA compliance isn't about memorizing rules. It's about knowing where to go when something new comes up — and trusting the answer you get.

Kardon Club is that place.

From Lost to Capable: How Kardon Club Changed Julie Glasgow's Approach to Security Risk Assessments

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/YzIhMoOYNGM

Security risk assessments are required under HIPAA. Most people managing them feel underprepared.

Julie Glasgow is a HIPAA compliance manager with decades of healthcare experience. She was one of them.

"The thing in my position that I struggled with the most has been security risk assessments — how you actually do that and what does that mean."

Between Kardon Club resources and the Help Me With HIPAA podcast, she went from not knowing how to approach one to running what she describes as a comprehensive assessment.

That's the practical outcome. Not just awareness — actual capability.

The upcoming HIPAA Security Rule update includes significant changes to risk analysis requirements. Kardon Club members get live training on exactly what's changing and what a compliant risk analysis needs to include under the new rules.

Why Julie Glasgow Considers Kardon Club Essential

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdjDrKNd0kU

Almost 30 years in healthcare, and still learning.

Julie Glasgow has been in healthcare since HIPAA was first enacted — and she’ll tell you directly: Kardon Club is still an essential part of her job.

“There’s so much I still don’t know… and Kardon Club is always there to provide the resources.”

That’s the reality of HIPAA.

Experience is an asset.
But current knowledge is a requirement.

The regulations evolve.
The threat landscape changes.
Enforcement shifts.

And now, with the most significant HIPAA Security Rule update in over 20 years, even experienced compliance professionals will need to revisit their programs.

That’s where Kardon Club comes in — helping you stay current, ask questions, and understand what’s actually changing.

Always Purposeful, Never Wasteful: The Kardon Commitment

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1xSQNkyJU68

No fluff. Every Kardon Club session has a reason.

JoAnn Gardner (Sterling Ideas IT) has attended enough training events to know the difference between content that fills time and content that changes how you work.

Her experience with Kardon: "There's never any fluff. There's always a strategy and always a reason behind things."

For organizations managing compliance budgets carefully, this matters. When your team walks away from every single Kardon Club session with something actionable, the ROI is straightforward.

With the HIPAA Security Rule update coming, every Kardon Club session between now and implementation will be directly relevant to what your organization needs to do. No filler. Specific guidance on specific requirements.

The Heart of HIPAA: It's About Patient Safety, Not Just Regulatory Boxes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8mLfrcRjg5c

HIPAA compliance is easy to turn into a checklist.

But that misses the point.

JoAnn Gardner from Sterling Ideas IT put it this way: “What you’re really trying to do at the end of the day — HIPAA is about patients. It’s about patient safety. It’s about people.”

That shift in perspective changes everything.

It’s the difference between a program that looks right on paper and one that actually protects the people in the exam room.

For IT providers and business associates, this matters.

Because when patient data is compromised through a vendor, the patient doesn’t know who had the BAA. They just know their information was exposed.

That’s why understanding your role — and getting compliance right — isn’t optional.

An IT Firm's Honest Assessment of Kardon Club | Sterling Ideas IT

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_5kELfp_40

One IT firm's honest assessment of Kardon Club.

JoAnn Gardner is the compliance manager at Sterling Ideas IT — an MSP serving healthcare clients. Her team members are Kardon Club members.

Her assessment: every time they engage with Kardon, they get something they didn't have before. The AI session two years ago opened her husband's eyes to where the industry was heading. The hangouts consistently surface things the team didn't know were on the horizon.

"Every single time there's a Kardon Club event, our team members come back and say — this is what we learned, this is what's on the horizon."

For IT firms that can't send every team member to every training event, the Varsity membership (up to 3 logins) functions as a team resource. One member attends, the whole team gets debriefed.

That's not a passive training library. That's active intelligence for an organization that needs to stay current.

"Like Drinking from a Fire Hose" — An IT Firm's First Experience with HIPAA Compliance

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riyLpKqGgg8

When Sterling Ideas IT started working with healthcare clients, they knew they needed to get HIPAA right.

What compliance manager JoAnn Gardner didn't fully anticipate was how much there was to understand.

"When I first started engaging Kardon, it was like drinking from a fire hose — because this is a team that lives in this realm."

That's the reality for most IT firms entering the healthcare space. You're excellent at what you do. HIPAA is a separate domain with its own language, its own risk framework, and its own enforcement structure. A business associate agreement tells you what you agreed to. It doesn't tell you how to do it.

Kardon Club was built so organizations like Sterling Ideas IT can get up to speed — and stay there — without figuring it out alone.

The upcoming HIPAA Security Rule changes affect business associates directly. JoAnn's team uses Kardon Club to stay ahead of exactly this kind of change.

If Your HIPAA Program Isn’t Tracking This, You’re Behind

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eoVVByk0p8g

AI is now embedded in browsers, software platforms, and clinical tools — and most HIPAA programs haven’t caught up.

Chris Chapman noticed this early. Kardon was covering it before most compliance organizations were even talking about it — Episode 392 of Help Me With HIPAA interviewed ChatGPT back in February 2023. The hangouts have been tracking AI and HIPAA ever since.

But this isn’t just about AI.

It’s about staying current in a compliance environment that’s changing faster than most organizations can track.
The question isn’t whether AI is affecting your HIPAA obligations. It is.

The question is whether you understand where your exposure is before it becomes a problem.

With the HIPAA Security Rule being updated for the first time in over 20 years, this is exactly where Kardon Club provides value — ongoing insight into what’s changing and what it actually means for your program.

If you’re not sure where your exposure is, now is the time to find out. That’s exactly what Kardon Club is built to help you do.

"I Didn't Even Need a Trial Period" — Kardon Club Member Chris Chapman on Why He Joined
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ZZEYTTlc1So

Still evaluating whether Kardon Club is worth it? So was Chris Chapman — until the first meeting.

His take: "You don't even have to go through a time period where you really see the value. In the first meeting, the first discussion — it's definitely a benefit."

But Chris also makes a point that often gets overlooked. Kardon Club isn't just for practices and hospitals. It's for IT vendors, software partners, and managed service providers who signed business associate agreements.

"A lot of times you get statements like — we have a BAA, so we're good. When I look closer at that, they really are not trained on HIPAA."

A BAA is a legal agreement. It is not a HIPAA compliance program. If you support covered entities, you've accepted specific obligations — and most IT providers don't fully understand what those are until something goes wrong.

That’s where Kardon Club comes in. A place to learn what those responsibilities actually look like in practice — not just on paper — and stay current on what’s changing.
