“HIPAA compliance is so much more than just passing out the Notice of Privacy Practices at the first client contact. In HIPAA Demystified, Dr. Lorna Hecker explains the essence of the Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act of 1996 and translates it in an understandable manner, allowing readers smooth implementation of the regulations to their practices. Each chapter is arranged with clarifying “demystification” summaries that explain HIPAA requirements in actionable terms. Dr. Hecker’s use of real world case examples illustrating breaches of protected patient health information reminds us how easily this can happen and how to mitigate those risks. Search no longer, HIPAA Demystified will be your ultimate guide to HIPAA compliance.”
