There's also not such a thing as "HIPPA Certified" and anyway it's "HIPAA". Do you mean you got some sort of training in how HIPAA privacy and security rules apply to you?
- jbluepolarbear 6y agoThere is(was?); this was in 2014/15. I don’t remember exactly why it was called. It was a hipaa data security certification. I sat in a weekend class and got a cert that was required by the 3 hospital data companies we were working with in the Denver/Colorado Springs area.
- paulcole 6y agoBut who provided the cert? Was it the US government or was it some 3rd-party profiting off HIPAA-confusion?
- fl0wenol 6y agoThe hospital is well within their right to request a 3rd party certification as a proxy for their evaluating a potential business associate before exchanging information, since as a covered entity they can be held liable for something that happens to the information they divulge.
