ComplianceJunction’s training course, “HIPAA Training for Organizations,” has recently received accreditation from the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA). AHIMA (American Health Information Management Association) is a global nonprofit association of health information (HI) professionals with more than 61,000 members and more than 88,000 credentials in the field. The AHIMA mission of empowering people to impact health® drives its members and credentialed HI professionals to ensure that health information is accurate, complete, and available to patients and providers. This accreditation allows healthcare professionals to earn up to 2.0 Continuing Education Units (CEUs) upon completing the training course.
ComplianceJunction has designed its HIPAA training to be comprehensive and customizable, comprising 26 detailed modules in total. These core and extended modules cover all relevant aspects of HIPAA regulations and cybersecurity awareness training, ensuring that healthcare organizations and their staff are well-equipped to handle sensitive patient information (PHI) securely and in compliance with regulatory requirements.
Commenting on this recent announcement, Ryan Coyne of ComplianceJunction stated: “Several of our customers asked us to attain accreditation from AHIMA for our HIPAA Training. We are delighted to receive this recognition from such an important organization in the health information management sector. This AHIMA accreditation highlights ComplianceJunction’s commitment to providing high-quality, effective HIPAA training that meets the educational needs of healthcare professionals and supports ongoing compliance with regulatory standards”. The allocation of these 2.0 CEUs benefits healthcare workers by supporting their continuing education and professional development. Earning these credits is crucial for maintaining certifications in the healthcare sector, and by facilitating this, ComplianceJunction helps healthcare organizations incentivize their staff to complete annual HIPAA training.
Kara Lacey, LMFT, Co-Founder & Therapist at River Wards Wellness Collective, praised ComplianceJunction’s training program, stating, “ComplianceJunction has been so helpful in implementing a HIPAA training program for all our staff. As business owners, we can track our employee participation and progress in the training. It was important to our staff to receive CEUs for this training, and when we proposed the idea to ComplianceJunction, they were on it! We are grateful for the collaboration in tailoring the training and the opportunity to continue to work with ComplianceJunction as our training provider.”
