Description
Federal HIPAA and Texas H.B. 300 is enforced by the Office for Civil Rights (OCR) and the Texas Attorney General. Combined federal and state fines vary from $5,000 to $3 million. There were 13,020,821 health records breached in 2018. The Office for Civil Rights recommends periodic HIPAA training. Although they do not specifically state it should be conducted annually, rather when there is a change in personnel or when technology changes. We recommend that anyone handling Protected Health Information (PHI) have annual HIPAA training, and anyone handling PHI for Texas residents have annual Texas H.B. 300 training to fully document training compliance. This not only includes medical personnel, but also dental personnel, schools, universities, researchers, IT service providers, court reporters, government agencies, or anyone who may come in contact with PHI.
Course Description
The Texas House Bill 300 (H.B. 300) expands the existing privacy requirements, of the Texas Medical Records Privacy Act, to any individual or organization that has access to the Protected Health Information (PHI) or sensitive Personal Information (SPI) of any Texas resident, regardless of where they are located. In this course you will learn about the patient rights, procedures, and fines associated with non-compliance.
