The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996 legislates data privacy and security for patient information. It is an important component of our patient trust and relationships and training is REQUIRED before you can receive your clinical username/password, work with patients, or view their personal health information.

The Office of Student Affairs (OSA) has sent you information on how to log in and complete the annual regulatory training, which includes the HIPAA training. Once you have completed the annual regulatory training, you will receive your clinical username and initial password. We strongly encourage you to complete the training at least a week before classes begin. It should take you approximately 30-45 minutes to go through all modules and exams.
