HIPAA Privacy Compliance Deadline is NOW !!

The April 14, 2003 Privacy deadline may have passed but this is just the beginning of a new era and HIPAA training is a very important component. HIPAA requires that all staff, including physicians, receive awareness and role specific training. This is a huge undertaking and not a one time event.

Issues impacting physicians must be clearly communicated to ensure compliance. To provide physician awareness training in a short but concise manner, Beacon Partners has developed a simple handbook which can be given to all physicians. The “HIPAA Training Handbook for Physicians” clearly targets areas of the HIPAA regulations that affect Physicians.

Key components of HIPAA are defined and the use of scenarios focuses on specific issues for Physicians (click here for sample page). An examination is included in the handbook (answer key can be distributed separately or included in the booklet per your specifications) and can be used as a documentation tool for your organization.

“HIPAA Training Handbook for Physicians” includes definitions and case studies for the following:

  • HIPAA Overview
  • Protected Health Information
  • Individually Identifiable Health Information
  • Patient Rights
  • Notice of Privacy Practices
  • Authorizations
  • Minimum Necessary
  • Communication and Physical Safeguards
  • Tracking HIPAA Components

The low introductory cost makes this a reasonable approach for organizations of all sizes.
