031703 Tom Walsh Consultant CTG Healthcare Solutions

Email from St. Joseph Regional Medical Center, Lewiston, ID:

Jill, Collin, Tom Aram (our network specialist)and I attended the Security Only portion of the AHIMA/HIMSS Getting Practical with Privacy and Security workshop. We all thought it was excellent. Tom Walsh, CISSP, Principal Consultant for CTG Healthcare Solutions presented the majority of the program. We think this firm may be one that we should consider as a potential consultant to assist organizations with their Risk Assessments.

He was REASONABLE in his approach to compliance, and clearly understands that what works for a very large medical center in the inner city may not make sense for a small, rural facility. His contact information is provided below. Please share it with the appropriate Ascension folks.
