HIPAAHIPAA: 13. Protection Against Violations - Risk Analysis7:26The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act is a lengthy and arguably cumbersome maze of rules and requirements. Because it’s your organization’s job to stay compliant, it may seem like a daunting task. Of course, your first step is to fully train all employees on both the HIPAA Privacy and the HIPAA Security rules. Beyond that, it’s the organization’s job to conduct a formal risk analysis and to ensure that the necessary information safeguards are in place. These steps will greatly limit the risk of a breach. And, if a breach occurs, these processes can limit any fines imposed by the Office of Civil Rights– the enforcement arm of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, or HHS. In this course, we’re going to talk through HHS recommendations regarding risk analysis.YYNHIPAALife Skills PreparationWC0039EN, ES, ZH, DE, FR, CF, PT, TH

Of course, your first step is to fully train all employees on both the HIPAA Privacy and the HIPAA Security rules.

These steps: the risk analysis and the administrative, technical and physical safeguards, will greatly limit the risk of a breach.

HIPAAHIPAA: 18. For Emergency Responders10:40As an emergency responder, you're engaging with patients during some of the most vulnerable times in their lives. Your job is to comfort, treat, and transport while protecting yourself and those around you. The first question typically asked by emergency responders is this: "Am I required to be HIPAA compliant?"Most of the time, the answer is eyes." Any health care providers that charge for services, including EMS agencies, fire departments, or rescue squads, are considered covered entities under HIPAA.YYNHIPAALife Skills PreparationWC0044EN, ES, ZH, DE, FR, CF, PT, TH
HIPAAHIPAA: 19. GINA6:54One of the most significant changes in the health care landscape is the ability to use genetic information to determine a patient's risk of developing certain conditions or illness. This amazing technological advancement is a tool for people all over the world.

As you might recall, covered entities are health care providers and companies that are required to adhere to HIPAA rules. Under HITECH, the offices of business associates also need to be HIPAA compliant.YYNHIPAALife Skills PreparationWC0047EN, ES, ZH, DE, FR, CF, PT, TH

same job. This is called the "gender wage gap." It was a big problem in 1963, when President Kennedy signed the Equal Pay Act. It's still a problem today, over 50 years later. In 2015, the U.S. Census Bureau found that for full-time, year-round workers, women

made about 80 cents for every dollar earned by men. In this course, we'll take a closer look at the protections provided by the Equal Pay Act, or EPA. We'll also look at the steps you should take if you feel you have been discriminated against.
