HIPAA Certification for Individuals
Do you know if you have taken the right level of HIPAA certification? Does your certificate mention your HIPAA credential name? Did you choose the certification test for expert or beginner level?
It is challenging to decide which HIPAA certificate one should pursue? Many vendors who offer HIPAA training are only offering basic level training, and their expert-level training of 4-5 hours do not address the regulation in depth. The first step towards compliance is to train your HIPAA privacy and security officer with the preparation of at least 22 hours. This ensures that one person in your company understands the HIPAA rules.
