Importance of HIPAA Training
We already know that a lack of HIPAA training is
a violation of the law. But ineffective HIPAA
training can cause data breaches. Employee HIPAA
training needs to cover specific topics, and it
also needs to be recorded by employers. Pre-made
modules created by compliance experts ensure that
employees are learning about the right topics,
and online learning tracks training. Online HIPAA
employee training can lower the risk of your
employees causing breaches and help you stay
compliant.
Learning Management Systems and eLearning
Online Dental HIPAA Training is often referred to
as eLearning. Its exactly what it sounds like
training through online training modules, rather
than in-person lectures. Learning management
systems allow employers to deliver training,
automate the training process, track the progress
of each user, send notifications, and generate
certifications.

HIPAA Online Training Saves Time
According to research, online learning reduces
training time by 4060. It also reduces
employee downtime. Not to mention that with
online training, there is no travel involved in
contrast, in-person training results in lost time
while travelling to and from the training
venue. Online learning also results in saved
time for the trainer. In-person training often
means the employer repeatedly delivers the same
training. Delivering the same HIPAA training over
and over wastes a lot of time. With an LMS,
trainers can develop a training module one time
and assign it to employees as needed. Employers
can assign training modules to employees based on
job title, department, or location. Employers can
create HIPAA training modules to tailor to
certain job roles, so employees are more
motivated to pay attention.
