Skills covered in this course
Description
This is a shorter, condensed version of QlickTrain's full HIPAA Compliance Training course (about 25 minutes instead of 40), designed for organizations that need focused annual or refresher HIPAA training without the full-length course. Protecting patient information is a shared responsibility across healthcare organizations. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) establishes federal standards for protecting Protected Health Information (PHI), and every person who accesses, uses, stores or shares patient information plays a role in keeping it private and secure. In this course, learners explore the fundamentals of HIPAA and PHI, the Privacy and Security Rules, patient rights and permitted uses and disclosures of PHI, and how to recognize and report potential privacy or security incidents. Focused lessons, narrated content and knowledge checks reinforce each topic, followed by a 10-question final assessment.
