Smart Health: HIPAA Privacy Standards for Everyone
Every day, healthcare professionals handle information worth more on the black market than credit card numbers: patients’ private health data. We all have personal health information, and many of us are responsible for the health and personal information of others. Most of us agree that information should be private and therefore, protected. The HIPAA Privacy Standards were created for that purpose. Criminal charges can be brought against anyone in healthcare who is not in compliance. You can be knowledgeable and better protected by being familiar with these standards.
This interactive course gives you definitions and ways to recognize non-compliance. We’ll discuss how to protect private health information and we’ll give you examples of situations you could face and how to handle them correctly.
