ADA updates HIPAA kit

The ADA Practical Guide to HIPAA Compliance: Privacy and Security Kit is an easy way for dentists to familiarize themselves with the new Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act requirements that changed earlier this year.

The kit combines and updates the ADA Catalog鈥檚 best-selling HIPAA Privacy and Security Manuals and was developed especially for dentists. It provides a step-by-step plan to help prepare and implement a HIPAA compliance program for a dental practice and also includes sample forms, policies, procedures, checklists and risk assessment questions as well as workforce training guidance. For dentists and auxiliaries who desire continuing education credits, a HIPAA test worth eight credits is available for purchase through ADA CE Online. Visit www.adaceonline.org.

The kit (J594), which contains the manual, CD ROM and subscription service, is $225 for members and $337.50 for nonmembers.

The ADA is offering a $25 discount on all HIPAA kit orders through June 15 with offer code No. 10403. All products are available online at聽www.adacatalog.org or by calling 1-800-947-4746.
