*********************** ARTICLE START ***********************
HIPAA or Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act was enforced as a law in 1996. The foremost aim of this law was to ensure that private health information of patients is protected and kept secure. HIPAA not only covers doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals but also other areas of the health care system that use and share patient information, such as health insurers, pharmacies, medical transcriptionists, and so on.

When the law was passed, it stipulated that all healthcare providers prepare to fully comply with all the HIPAA standards by 2013. One of the requirements of HIPAA is that employees of healthcare organizations must undergo training and become HIPAA certified. Most healthcare organizations who require their staff to be HIPAA certified will usually provide a HIPAA certification course for them at the workplace itself. However, if that is not the case with your organization, there are several online courses that you can enroll in.

If you decide to enroll in an online HIPAA Certification Course, first you must look for a reputed and accredited online company. A quick and detailed internet search will lead you to find it.

Here are three important benefits of an online HIPAA Certification Course.

� In an online course you can start and complete the training in your own time and speed. The training is not very long and can be generally completed in a few hours. However, as no time limit is specified, you can take your time and complete the course in your free time. Online HIPAA certification courses are ideal for you if you are working or studying full and cannot take time off to attend a classroom-based course. An online course will give you the freedom you need to properly finish the training topics after work or on weekends. Once you are done, you can take your own time to review it, so that you are thorough with all the topics.

� These online courses are very comprehensive and cover a variety of topics such as HIPAA basics, Administrative Simplification and accountability, Privacy and Security rules, standards of Electronic Transactions, and so on. The topics include basic summaries of topics as well as detailed explanations using real life examples. The course also covers information about all the individuals and organizations that come under this act and the repercussions of non-compliance and the resulting penalties.

� One major benefit of doing the HIPAA Certification Course online is that it is simple. You do not need to download software on your PC. You only need a good internet connection and a PC or laptop. Once you are done with your course, you have to pass a small test, following which; you are given a completion certificate. You can print the certificate online when you�re done with the course without wasting any time.

The online course is becoming more and more popular because of the convenience and flexibility associated with it. With online courses, you also get resource guides to help you like sample documents and FAQs, which will be your life-saver as you try to understand the details of the HIPAA standards and rules.
