HIPAA Compliance Training

It is important for all members of the workforce who work with PHI to understand the HIPAA Privacy Rule. To accomplish this, you must learn HIPAA through a carefully crafted HIPAA Compliance Training Program such as that offered by HIPAA Associates. These programs are created for busy professionals who must comply with the HIPAA Privacy Rule. The “Online HIPAA Training” is easy to take and covers all the important aspects of the “Rule.” We have created a HIPAA for professionals program that will cover all of  your needs. Our online HIPAA compliance training will make it easy to train all of your staff.

The HIPAA Compliance Training program was created especially for all individuals who work with protected health information (PHI) while providing healthcare services.

We have the knowledge and experience to assist you with your HIPAA concerns as we have since 2002. We will personally work with you directly on your HIPAA needs. Mary Lopez has nineteen years’ experience providing HIPAA guidance and practical solutions. Al Lopez has 12 years of experience with consulting and HIPAA training. Our mission is to make HIPAA training and compliance painless and understandable.

HIPAA Associates uses its unique blend of knowledge and experience to provide accessible HIPAA training and consulting services to all who must comply with the HIPAA Privacy Rule.  We are professionals with a background in nursing, medicine, and compliance.  We are  certified by the Health Care Compliance Association and The American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA), the most recognized  healthcare compliance associations in the country. 

• Pioneers in the Field of HIPAA – We have assisted in the creation of HIPAA programs since 2002.  We have over 18 years of practical experience with the management of programs and training of providers.  We helped create the first HIPAA program at a large multi-hospital institution and since then have helped manage programs for multiple physician organizations and other hospital systems.  Today we provide services to hospitals, clinics, providers, and public health departments.
• Training from the Best – Our training has been successfully used in many settings and is easy to follow and understand.  We have created our courses to benefit all staff in your organization.  Our programs cover all personnel in your organization based on their role in the entity.  We offer HIPAA Compliance Training, HIPAA for Health Information Management Training, HIPAA for IT professionals and HIPAA Compliance Training in Spanish. We have recently created a combined course for IT professionals who work as Business Associates.
• Affordable – Our courses are affordable and come with personalized support.  We make ourselves personally available to all organizations or individuals who elect to use our services.

HIPAA Certification is a term commonly used by many vendors today claiming the ability to certify organizations on HIPAA and make them HIPAA Compliant.  This is a misconception actively addressed by the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) with oversight of the HIPAA Regulations.

The Department of Health & Human services (HHS) and OCR have made it clear that in regard to HIPAA certification they do not endorse any private consultants’ or education providers’ seminar, material, or systems, and do not certify any persons or products as “HIPAA compliant.”  The Privacy Rule does not require attendance at any specific seminars.  The OCR has taken a further step and indicated that anyone making false or misleading representations about HHS or OCR in regard to HIPAA training and compliance may be reported to the OCR.

HIPAA Associates does not claim to offer HIPAA certification.  Instead we offer a HIPAA Compliance training program created with the requirements of the HIPAA Privacy Rule in mind.  Our training is based on in-depth knowledge of the law and the benefit of many years of experience working with HIPAA and the OCR.  These courses include information on best practices and cover all of the necessary information you will need to understand the basic concepts of HIPAA. We follow the intent of the OCR in all of our training programs.

Our “Online HIPAA Training” covers all the important topics necessary for a busy provider to know to be able to uncerstand the HIPAA Privacy Rule.  It is easy to take directly from our online platform.  A certificate of completion is available immediately on finishing the course.
