HIPAA

HIPAA requires all health care plans, clearinghouses and providers to implement new procedures in handling electronic medical records. Managing the records with integrity and discretion has become more difficult as well as expensive. Murer Consultants, Inc. has developed a program to assist in the training of members of health care facilities in HIPAA privacy implementation.

HIPAA Mapping and Plotting

The program is designed to teach health systems what to look for in current practices so they may determine what course of action to take in order to comply with HIPAA rules and regulations.

The training provides the following:

  • Definition of Senior Management's role
  • Definition of Privacy Officer's role
  • Identification of personnel to be trained
  • Explanation of how to train by department & discipline
  • Discussion of training materials needed
  • Explanation of how to make the most of in-house resources
