The discussion assignment for this week includes a review of the Key Assignment Outline completed by one of your classmates, as well as a substantial response to at least 1 other student.
Primary Task Response: Your first task is to post your own Key Assignment Outline to the discussion area so that other students are able to review your plan. Attach your document to the main discussion post, and include any notes you feel are appropriate. The purpose of this assignment is to help improve the quality of the Key Assignment Draft you will complete next week.
An additional discussion assignment for this week includes a review of the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) policies and regulations. HIPAA is a series of government regulations defining private, confidential medical information. These regulations dictate who can use and transmit medical information. The clinic policy states that you are required to explain the HIPAA policy to the patient, obtain his or her signature after you answer any questions, and give a copy of the document to the patient.
Use this Web site, which contains valuable information regarding the HIPAA rules and regulations.
After reviewing the documents, discuss the following:
- What are the rules and regulations that pertain to the health care organizations?
- Should there be mandatory training on HIPAA rules and regulations and a competency test? Why, or why not?
