HIPAA Privacy and Security Training Resource



HIPAA mandates that all medical office staff, including physicians, be trained on the HIPAA privacy rules, security policies and procedures. CMA has developed The HIPAA Privacy and Security Rule Training Manual to provide a general training and overview for physicians. The manual contains:
  • HIPAA Privacy and Security Rule Quiz
  • Customizable checklist detailing the specific privacy and security rule responsibilities of the employee
  • Employee certification form
The HIPAA Privacy and Security Rule Training Manual is a joint effort by the California Medical Association (CMA) and PrivaPlan® Associates, Inc. SFMS/CMA members can access this resource free of charge at resource library. Another resource for HIPAA compliance is the CMA/PrivaPlan HIPAA Privacy and Security Compliance Toolkit. The toolkit is customized for California law and contains customized forms, policies and procedures to ensure HIPAA compliance.
