HIPAA Dental Office Training

Dental offices deal with multiple patient records every day. This can include new, existing, walk-in, and by appointment patients who will eventually disclose basic and pertinent information such as the following:

  • Name
  • Age and Date of Birth
  • Address
  • Next of Kin
  • Occupation
  • Social Security Number
  • Medical Insurance Policy Number and Coverage
  • Medical History

HIPAA or the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 is a federal law that protects sensitive patient health information from potential privacy breaches without the patient’s consent or knowledge. Dental offices are among the covered entities subject to HIPAA. Any covered entities like a dental office are permitted, but not required, to use and disclose protected health information, without an individual’s authorization.

HIPAA Dental Office Training is necessary for all dental practices and office employees to properly safeguard collected patient medical records, to understand when to only use and disclose collected patient medical records, and to avoid privacy breach, misuse, and transmission of collected patient records in any irrelevant cause.

Have you ever wondered if your dental office is HIPAA compliant?

If so, then this course is for you! This course will teach you everything there is to know about HIPAA compliance and how it pertains to the dental office. You’ll learn what information can be shared with patients, what information cannot be shared with patients, and much more. It’s a great way to ensure that your dental practice stays in line with federal regulations.

We all want our practices to run smoothly without any hiccups or problems along the way. That means everyone needs to be on board when it comes to patient privacy and confidentiality – including staff members who may not have even been hired yet! By taking this course now, you can make sure that your entire team understands their role in keeping patient records safe from prying eyes. And by doing so, they won’t accidentally put your practice at risk of fines or other penalties down the road!
