HIPAA Training For Emergency Medical Services (EMS)

This course outlines the privacy and security laws that prevent security breaches and ultimately, keep patient information safe. The HIPAA information covered in this module is used by millions of employees around the country and encompasses regulations by The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The four major aspects of this act that support nearly every healthcare business includes: policies, record keeping, technology, and building safety. These all work together to protect patient data and create a safer, more effective healthcare industry. HIPAA is regulated by the Department of Health and Human Services’ Office for Civil Rights (OCR).
