| Effective for group health plans, issuers, and HMOs on July 1, 1997, HIPAA Portability rules are intended to improve the portability and availability of health care. |
| Our HIPAA Portability Training & Certification Program provides all of the details you will need to become knowledgeable on both the initially-published rules and the January 2001 rules governing nondiscrimination based upon health factors. |
| The Program is easy to use, and contains Lesson Goals, Knowledge Checks, and End of Lesson Quizzes to facilitate learning. Administrative tips and recommended procedures help to ensure that you are able to apply your knowledge to real life situations. |
| A "Bookmark" feature allows you to proceed through the Program at your own pace and return to the exact spot where you left off when you last exited the program. You also have the ability to return to previously-read material and to take an optional test to earn a Certified HIPAA Portability Expert designation. |
| Upon completion of the HIPAA Portability Training & Certification Program, you will be able to: |
- Identify and apply prior creditable health care coverage
- Develop and produce a compliant certificate of creditable coverage
- Determine the application and length of a preexisting condition exclusion
- Recognize a special enrollment situation
- Understand how to comply with HIPAA requirements for nondiscrimination based upon health factors
- Integrate HIPAA requirements with COBRA, Qualified Medical Child Support Orders (QMCSOs), The Mental Health Parity Act, and other applicable laws
|
| The Program is also available with access to our E-Alert update service. This service emails you regulatory changes and court case updates to help you stay current. |
