HIPAA Training in New Mexico
HIPAA training in New Mexico is an important part of the curriculum for many medical and healthcare career programs. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996 changed how medical information can be stored, used, and accessed. It’s a very serious business; violations can result in anything from voluntary compliance and corrective action to investigation by the Department of Justice for the most serious cases of breach. There are three distinct sections of HIPAA, although each deals in some way with protecting confidential information. These areas include patient medical records, security of electronically stored or transmitted data, and the use of individually identifiable data in patient safety programs.
