The problem with that you have the policies, but you never understand them, and your staff will not use them. Our training covers the exact rules in our manual that you receive. There have also been HIPAA rule violations that penalized the Covered Entity for using a template.

Yes, all the information you need is on the web. But do you have time to wade through all the rules and regs through government and tailor them to your practice?

You must perform a security risk assessment every year and it should be documented. HIPAA requires organizations to provide training for all employees, new workforce members, and periodic refresher training. Most interpret this to mean yearly with refresher  With our training you get weekly security tips and monthly reminders.

You get a document repository to keep all your documents in one place. (Remember if audited you only have 10 days to send them in a digital form), a step-by-step process, forms, Policies and Procedures tailor made for your practice and most importantly expert help to become and more importantly stay HIPAA compliant. We will also work with your Business Associates to get agreements from all your vendors.

You hired you IT guy to do IT tasks. He/she could be the best IT guy but unless he has read, he HIPAA regulations, signed a BAA and documented ALL IT tasks and updates he performed he may be unknowing violating HIPAA.
