HIPAA Portability Procedures Manual - Table Of Content

- TABLE OF CONTENTS -

Below are the covered topics for both our HIPAA Portability Training & Certification Program and our Procedures Manual. While each includes numerous tips, examples, and procedural recommendations, the way each is used is different.

For the Training & Certification Program, the content is presented as classroom learning where you complete one lesson, then are quizzed on the what you learn before moving on to the next lesson. The Manual is typically used as a reference material, and allows you to click through to related links (instead of having to use an index, like at the back of a traditional book), so essentially you can click on any topic at any time to see not only that content, but all related content on one page.
