HIPAA requires that organizations provide all employees the training, new hire staff and then periodic refresher training. One can interpret \u2018periodic\u2019 in a number of ways, but most organizations implement HIPAA training on an annual basis and this is considered to be a kind of \u2018best practice\u2019 action. The reason for this is that HIPAA regulations have an annual update and failure to comply with new regulations can result in consequences, including fines.\"\n    }\n  },{\n    \"@type\": \"Question\",\n    \"name\": \"Are Physicians and Dentists excluded from the training?\",\n    \"acceptedAnswer\": {\n      \"@type\": \"Answer\",\n      \"text\": \"OSHA training is a mandatory requirement for all staff, including doctors, dentists, administrative employees, nurses and even part time employees.\n\nHIPAA training is a mandatory requirement for all individuals that come into contact with PHI (protected health information) and this includes physicians, nurses, doctors, receptionists, administrative and part time staff as well as interns.

Employees must receive periodic refresher training, and new staff must receive training within a reasonable time of joining the team. <\/p>\n\n<p>You may consider providing HIPAA compliance training once a year to ensure employees receive periodic updates based on the most up-to-date regulations. <\/p>\n<h3>OSHA<\/h3>\n<p>According to the regulations, employees should <a href=\"https:\/\/www.osha.gov\/laws-regs\/standardinterpretations\/2007-01-24#:~:text=However%2C%20wherever%20OSHA%20standards%20require,period%20not%20exceeding%20365%20days.)\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">normally receive<\/a> OSHA training at least annually. This does not need to be exactly within 12 months but as close to the timeframe as possible. <\/p>\n\n<p>Staff may need more frequent training, especially if there are rule changes they should be aware of. And new staff should, usually, receive training within 10 days of beginning the job.<\/p> \n\n<p><b>Are physicians and dentists excluded from OSHA and HIPAA compliance training?<\/b><\/p>\n\n<p>No. If you\u2019re a healthcare worker, assume that training requirements apply. <\/p>\n\n<p>OSHA training is a mandatory requirement for all staff who face hazards at work. This will include doctors and dentists and other health workers such as administrators, nurses, and part-time workers.<\/p>\n\n<p>HIPAA training is a mandatory requirement for all individuals that come into contact with PHI (protected health information) and this includes physicians, nurses, doctors, receptionists, administrative and part time staff as well as interns. <\/p>\n\n<p>More specialized training may be required for those staff members that have certain positions, such as HIM, network administration, information technology or regulatory compliance.<\/p>\n\n<p><b>How long does HIPAA training certification take?<\/b> <\/p>\n\n<p>There\u2019s no single answer to this question. There is no set time frame for HIPAA compliance training. Instead, employees must receive training that is sufficient to cover the required information. <\/p>\n\n<p>Typically, HIPAA security training will take more than a few minutes, even for workers with the lowest level of access. However, it might only take the average healthcare worker a few hours to complete unless they have greater privileges that warrant further training e.g. they\u2019re in a managerial role.<\/p>\n\n \n<p><b>What kind of topics should be covered during HIPAA certification training?<\/b><\/p>\n\n<p>There are various topics that must be covered to fully complete HIPAA compliance training. Topics to cover<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cms.gov\/Outreach-and-Education\/Medicare-Learning-Network-MLN\/MLNProducts\/Downloads\/HIPAAPrivacyandSecurity.pdf\"> include<\/a>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>How HIPAA works<\/li>\n<li>HIPAA definitions<\/li>\n<li>Patient rights<\/li>\n<li>The<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hhs.gov\/sites\/default\/files\/ocr\/privacy\/hipaa\/understanding\/special\/healthit\/accountability.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> \u201cPrivacy Rule\u201d<\/a> \u2013 allowable disclosures of health data<\/li>\n<li>The<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hhs.gov\/hipaa\/for-professionals\/security\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">\u201cSecurity Rule\u201d<\/a> \u2013 controlling access to health data<\/li>\n<li>Breach notification training<\/li>\n<li>Consequences of HIPAA breaches<\/li>\n<li>How to comply with HIPAA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As being HIPAA-compliant is mandatory for covered entities and healthcare providers, it\u2019s important you understand what topics should be covered in training.
