What Does HIPAA Stand For?

The Importance of Using an IACET Accredited Training Provider
In a nutshell, 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. And it makes sense, doesn't it? Why would a company that doesn't have to undergo any screening process bother with fact-checking information? This highlights the importance of Using an IACET Accredited Training Provider.
Who Enforces HIPAA?
With all the compliance mandates surrounding HIPAA, and the fines that have taken place over the past year, it’s easy to wonder who’s finding all these violations and who’s enforcing HIPAA. The main party enforcing HIPAA is the Department of Health and Human Services' Office for Civil Rights, also known as OCR.
While they have most of the jurisdiction, the State Attorney General, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) all have some say in HIPAA enforcement.
