This course offers essential HIPAA training for healthcare workers. It provides a general summary of the crucial elements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) rules contained within 45 CFR § 160 and § 164 (Subparts A, C, D, and E). It's an invaluable resource for healthcare workers seeking to understand HIPAA rules and initial certification.

• Medical Coders/Billers (in-house)
• Nurses
• Paramedics/EMTs
• Pharmacists
