How will HIPAA affect your future in the medical field? What can you do to protect your patients' information under HIPAA?

Create a "pocket guide" of the HIPAA Security Rule that summarizes the rule requirements. This will be distributed to the workforce at Quality Hospital. It can be designed so that it can be attached to the employee ID badge, it can be a tri-fold brochure, a flyer, or poster to be put on a bulletin board, or a small card they can attach to a computer monitor. Feel free to use your imagination on this one. Be sure to tell me which item you selected to create. This is a tool so that employees will have a concise handy guide to remember some of the Security Rules that are important to them. The summary should be relevant to their everyday work. You may want to include information about passwords, encryption, etc.

This week, we are discussing privacy, confidentiality, and HIPAA. Based on your readings, where do you think there is a great likelihood of violation of patients' confidences? How is it that we, as those in the healthcare field, accidentally or intentionally violate patients' confidences and privacy? How do you plan on safeguarding confidences and privacy in the workplace? Please provide an example of a case in which a patient's privacy was violated. Tell us about the facts, the law, and the outcome.
