Overview:

Being in compliance with HIPAA involves not only ensuring you provide the appropriate patient rights and controls on your uses and disclosures of protected health information, but you also have the proper policies and procedures in place. If audited or the subject of a compliance review you will be required to show the government you have all the necessary documentation in place for safeguarding patient Protected Health Information and indicate how you addressed all privacy requirements. This starts with the understanding the fundamentals of the HIPAA Privacy Rule.

If your healthcare practice needs to understand what is required to protect health records or make sure your current safeguards are adequate and can withstand government scrutiny, please join us for this informative and interactive course.

Why should you Attend:

Healthcare providers must understand the HIPAA Privacy Rule as it pertains to patient’s rights, access to medical records, disclosures and best practices to safeguard personal health information.

A major goal of the Privacy Rule is to assure that individuals’ health information is properly protected while allowing the flow of health information needed to provide and promote high quality health care and to protect the public's health and well-being.
