  1. Better Compliance – This may seem like a no brainer but when you’re team is regularly trained and tested on compliance topics, they’re more likely to do what is required for compliance. Having your staff trained and tracking this training in a system like HIPAAwise allows for a document trail if your organization was to be audited.
  2. Understanding of the Violations – Have your team become familiar with the types of violations that can occur. A great resource to share with your team is our ongoing list of HIPAA fines, found here, or have them take a look of breaches that occur throughout the nation, here.  For those who interact with patient records on a daily basis, being aware and trained in these situations would be beneficial for your organization.
  3. Ever Changing Landscape – Those who work in the medical industry know that it’s ever changing landscape. That’s why it’s important to regularly send out emails or host meetings and trainings to provide information for any amendments to HIPAA regulation and how it can impact there every day duties.
When you use a program like HIPAAwise, you’re able to provide the ongoing training that is critical to stay compliant.

This is all tracked within in HIPAAwise to create a paper trail if an audit was to happen.
