Answers:
HIPPA is a pretty black and white law!. When the law was enacted, my boss just had us read over the law!. Look around our office to make sure no patient names or records were accessible by the other patients!. We would only use first names to call the patients!. And we make sure to shred all insurance paperwork!.
Pretty simple to follow!. Every office is different as to who does the training and paperwork!.
If an employee doesnt follow the policy, it leaves the employer open to fines and lawsuits!. If there is one slip up, most bosses would just talk to the person!. But if it is a repeat thing, I would think any boss would have to fire that person!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

employees must be trained in HIPPA regulations prior to any contact with client information!. Generally, an orientation class includes the HIPPA regulations including the consequences of violating client confidentiality, which can include fines and imprisonment!. Ultimately, the human resources department is responsible for accomplishing this!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
