HIPAA Training (2020-2021)

Please note: This course reflects HIPAA regulations, guidance, and enforcement practices as of its 2020 recording. HIPAA and related requirements change over time, and some specifics may have been updated since. This course is general educational and professional-development content — not legal advice, and not a substitute for guidance from your own compliance team or legal counsel. Before acting on any specific requirement, verify the current rules with primary sources such as HHS/OCR or a qualified professional. No specific compliance outcome or audit result is promised or guaranteed.

This course was recorded in 2020 and reflects HIPAA regulations and OCR guidance as they stood at that time. The core principles it teaches — the purpose of the Privacy and Security Rules, how to think about protected health information, and how to build a culture of compliance — remain foundational and are the reason it's still valuable That said, HIPAA evolves: enforcement priorities shift, and areas like cybersecurity requirements and the use of AI with patient data have developed since this was filmed. Treat this course as a grounding in the fundamentals, not a current regulatory checklist.

This brisk-paced training course for the healthcare provider workforce is full of engaging, real-life examples, showing you how to comply with HIPAA basics in a variety of roles. It covers the origins and scope of HIPAA/HITECH, who it applies to, key terms and definitions, The Privacy Rule, Breaches, Business Associates, and more.
