    Katie Roemer on Neurodiversity as a Compliance Asset [Podcast]
    Dec 16 2025
    By Adam Turteltaub Neurodiversity tends to be spoken of as an issue to be recognized and, quite often, as a barrier to overcome. Katie Roemer, Vice President, Compliance & Privacy Officer at Alta Hospital Systems see it differently: as an asset to your compliance team. In this podcast she points out that many neurodivergent people excel at pattern recognition and system level thinking, as well as root cause analysis, all of which are of great value to compliance teams. They can also help us to communicate better. Meeting their needs can help with general workforce training. Some examples include: Avoiding densely packed slides with light fonts that are hard to read Breaking the learning up into discreet pieces Previewing what is going to be learned and the length of training Letting the audience know what is the most important part of the training Giving key takeaways and highlighting key points To leverage the neurodiverse fully, she recommends creating a psychologically safe environment that encourages everyone to speak up without fear of consequences. This enables the expression of a diverse range of ideas from the entire team. Listen in to learn more about the how the neurodivergent can be an asset to your compliance efforts.

  • Bailey Mack on the History of Privacy Legislation [Podcast]

    Bailey Mack on the History of Privacy Legislation [Podcast]
    Dec 9 2025
    By Adam Turteltaub What do a secret wedding and Richard Nixon have in common with HIPAA? A lot more than you might think, shares Bailey Mack, Chief Compliance Officer at Together for Youth. In this podcast she tells us the interesting history of privacy and the law. We begin in 1890 when a photographer trespassed to photograph a wedding he wasn’t supposed to be photographing. Thirty eight years later in the Olmstead case, wiretapping wasn’t deemed intrusive because no one entered the room. It was as if a privacy violation could occur only if there was trespassing involved. That began to change in the 1960s in which thinking evolved and the idea gained currency that privacy was about violations of the person’s right to privacy, rather than to property. Watergate led to further changes in which citizens were given access to government records about them. And, since then, more legislation has come and likely will.
