Employee HIPAA Training for the Workplace
Prepare employees to protect patient privacy, safeguard protected health information (PHI) and make better decisions when handling sensitive information.
Train. Reinforce. Protect.
Traliant Learning Topics pair foundational, attorney-authored training with reinforcement content, including Micro Reels that keep key concepts fresh throughout the year. Always protected, not more time in training.
Protect patient privacy. Reduce risk.
Healthcare organizations continue to face a growing number of cyberattacks and data breaches, while HIPAA privacy and security requirements continue to evolve. Employees play a critical role in protecting protected health information (PHI), making practical, engaging HIPAA training more important than ever.
Traliant's Employee HIPAA Training for the Workplace is a 25-minute, TV-style interactive course that prepares clinical and non-clinical employees of HIPAA-covered entities and their business associates to confidently safeguard PHI and comply with HIPAA's Privacy, Security and Breach Notification Rules. Through realistic workplace scenarios, employees practice making the right decisions in situations they encounter every day.
The course helps employees understand how to protect PHI under HIPAA's Privacy Rule (including limits on the use and disclosure of PHI) and under HIPAA's Security Rule (using appropriate administrative, physical, and technical safeguards). It also explains required actions following a data breach as outlined in HIPAA's Breach Notification Rule. The course covers HIPAA as amended by the HITECH Act and state laws that supplement HIPAA obligations.
To keep HIPAA top of mind year-round, the training is complemented by a 12-minute podcast-style refresher course and 20 two-minute HIPAA Micro Reels that reinforce essential privacy, security, and data protection skills as regulations, technologies, and workplace risks continue to evolve.
