HIPAA and Interpreters

Professional Studies - 0.5 CEUs

This WWWorkshop will discuss the background of HIPAA, its impact on patients and professionals alike, and its role with interpreters in a medical situation. Interpreters MAY be considered Business Associates and therefore may be required to have additional responsibility and training. Medical professionals, interpreters, office employees, administrators and patients would all be well-served to have more than a rudimentary knowledge of HIPAA’s regulations. It is also important for the professionals in the medical setting to possess a deeper understanding of the regulations, not only because they are required to conform to them, but because you will one day be a patient yourself. This WWWorkshop is a must for Interpreters of all sizes! Educational interpreters because they may be involved in interpreting for a student in a medical situation, community interpreters, foreign language interpreters, adults (deaf and hearing), interpreting agencies, and medical personnel working with interpreters.

The mandatory activities will ask you to answer some multiple-choice questions.

This workshops is presented in ASL.
