Description
The information that a health care provider collects and uses to provide patient care is confidential and often sensitive. Because of the sensitive nature of medical records and other personally identifiable information, patients trust their health care provider to safeguard their information and use it appropriately. Employees of organizations that are considered ‘covered entities’ under HIPAA work with patients and their confidential information on a daily basis, and are required to follow the HIPAA Privacy Rule as well as their employer’s internal privacy policies. In this course, you will learn how to identify protected health information, how to appropriately use and disclose PHI, and how to implement best practices for safeguarding the information you work with every day. This course was developed with subject matter support provided by the Labor & Employment Law Group of the law firm of Baker, Donelson, Bearman, Caldwell & Berkowitz, PC.
