For organizations that are considered covered entities under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act  (HIPAA), it is critical that employees understand and comply with this law. Violations can be costly and place organizations at legal risk, damage reputations and jeopardize business and customer relationships. 

HIPAA for Covered Entities focuses on providing employees with an understanding of HIPAA’s Privacy and Security Rules. It starts by defining protected health information (PHI), and then trains learners on patient rights, how to secure it, guidelines for disclosure, and how to safeguard electronic records (ePHI). The course concludes by providing guidance on how to respond to security incidents. 

A covered entity’s ability to maintain the privacy of protected health information is the key to success. Employees need to understand HIPAA and how to follow this important law.
