BridgeFront's CEO Peter Cizik on the Importance of HIPAA Training
Vancouver, WA (PRWEB) January 06, 2015 -- BridgeFront's CEO, Peter Cizik discusses the importance of HIPAA training in a recent interview featured in the December issue of Renal and Urology News. BridgeFront got its start in HIPAA training, a topic near and dear to the hearts of co-founders Peter Cizik and Kent Lane.
"The constant evolution of technology, not only connects us, but makes us increasingly susceptible to breaches — as is evident in the stories we see almost every day in the media. It's really important that organizations of all sizes understand what they need to do to minimize these risks and how training is the cheapest insurance available." ~ Peter Cizik.
BridgeFront recently updated their more than 50 role based HIPAA course offerings. This is their 9th version of the popular HIPAA training in the twelve years the company has been in business.
The changes in the new version of our HIPAA education include:
- New engaging, interactive content
- Additional content on internal and external auditing
- Additional content discussing PHI breaches
As the year draws to a close, most organizations are planning their annual compliance training for 2015. BridgeFront is offering discounts up to 20% off on its HIPAA, OSHA and compliance training programs. Discounts on these programs and others are available through December 31, 2014.
Federal HIPAA regulations require covered entities and business associates to train staff upon hire and provide refresher training as the regulations shift, and to document this training. BridgeFront training meets or exceeds federal HIPAA regulations for staff education required of covered entities and business associates.
In 2014, nearly half a million students completed BridgeFront HIPAA education. BridgeFront's HIPAA online courses are one of the widest-used education tools in the compliance industry.
Courses can also be edited by each organization for their specific needs or situation. Courses are simple-to-use and offer a straightforward approach to providing just what employees need to protect organizations from data breaches and/or violations.
Inside each course, students will find optional audio, real-life scenarios, and a short quiz at the end. A "Certificate of Mastery" is available real-time to the employee and HR, proving documentation compliance.
