FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is HIPAA Certification?

There is no such thing as HIPAA certification for an organization or provider. There are guidelines for protected healthcare information (PHI), and there are certifications that may include some or all of the guidelines as set forth in HIPAA as required by HHS and enforced by OCR. HIPAA Exams offers a complete training course and certification that allows your organization to stay in compliance with HIPAA-mandated guidelines including HIPAA Privacy Rule, HIPAA Security Rule, HIPAA HITECH and HIPAA Omnibus rule which is required to comply with federal regulations.

What is HIPAA Training?

HIPAA training is a required component of HIPAA compliance. All those who work within or support the healthcare industry are required to take an annual HIPAA training. To put it simply, if your job duties require access to Personal Health Information (PHI), including but not limited to a person's name, phone number, address, social security number, medical records, medical treatments, etc, you are required to complete a yearly HIPAA training. 

What is HIPAA?

HIPAA is The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act enacted in 1996. It requires the Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to develop regulations protecting the privacy and security of certain health information. HIPAA sets standards for recording, transmitting and protecting this information, as well, enforcing the rules and setting penalties for violations. HIPAA has grown from the original law released in 1996 to include:

  • Privacy Rule
  • Security Rule
  • Enforcement Rule
  • HITECH Act
  • Omnibus and Final Rules
  • 2020/2021 HIPAA Updates - ONC and CMS Final Rules

The Importance of Using an IACET Accredited Provider

Accreditations are essential to ensuring verified information, legitimacy, and a minimum standard of excellence. Given the IACET's rigorous tests, standards of quality and review process, there is an added layer of competence associated with accreditation. It implies that the training provider in question has undergone and withstood a thorough process of examinations and scrutiny. Unaccredited training providers are notorious for providing inaccurate and false information. This highlights the importance of Using an IACET Accredited Training Provider.

What is HIPAA Compliance?

Per HIPAA regulation, there are two types of organizations that must meet HIPAA training compliance—Covered Entities, including group health plans, and Business Associates. In order to meet HIPAA compliance and be HIPAA-compliant, both Covered Entities and Business Associates must ensure that their organizations are following the standards and guidelines. Yearly training and risk assessments are only one aspect of compliance. The HIPAA Privacy Rule requires Federal standards to protect the medical records and other protected health information of all individuals within the U.S. It applies to health plans, health care clearinghouses, and all those providers who maintain or have access to electronic health records PHI. The HIPAA Security Rule applies the Privacy Rule to include standards to protect individual's electronic personal health information phi that is created, received, used, or maintained by a covered entity or business associate and sets reporting for breach notifications enforced by the Office of Civil Rights (OCR).
