The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, commonly called HIPAA, protects the confidentiality and security of healthcare information. HIPAA creates and protects individual privacy rights for protected health information and governs the use and disclosure of that information. In this course, you will learn about HIPAA, violations of HIPAA, and steps to take to prevent these violations.
The goal of this course is to provide all staff with an overview of the principles of HIPAA.
