Avlägsen
A HIPAA Privacy Officer’s role in an organization is to make sure the private health information of patients and clients is protected in accordance with HIPAA. They are responsible for protecting patient privacy and confidentiality, which serves a dual purpose—upholding patient rights and helping to protect their employer from HIPAA violations. They serve as subject matter experts regarding HIPAA laws at both the federal and state level. Developing policies and procedures to protect sensitive information is a large part of a HIPAA Privacy Officer’s job duties, as well as implementing those procedures.
A HIPAA Privacy Officer, or HIPAA Compliance Officer, is responsible for ensuring a business’s compliance with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. Their duties include overseeing patient privacy policies, investigating privacy complaints and updating privacy policies in accordance with current laws.
