Why Annual HIPAA Certification Is Required

Annual HIPAA certification is not just a best practice – it is a compliance requirement under the HIPAA Privacy Rule and Security Rule. Covered entities and business associates must provide ongoing workforce training to ensure employees understand how to safeguard Protected Health Information (PHI).

Healthcare organizations face evolving risks such as ransomware, phishing attacks, improper disclosures, and regulatory audits. Completing an Annual HIPAA Certification Course ensures your staff remains up to date on federal requirements, breach reporting obligations, and administrative safeguards.

Who Needs HIPAA Continuing Education?

HIPAA continuing education is required for:

  • Healthcare providers (physicians, nurses, therapists)

  • Medical office staff

  • Billing and coding professionals

  • Health plans

  • Clearinghouses

  • Business associates

  • IT and compliance teams

  • Administrative staff with PHI access

Any workforce member who handles, stores, transmits, or accesses patient information should complete annual HIPAA certification.
