This is the study guide and most
advanced training manual for different HIPAA Certifications. This HIPAA book focuses on the Administrative Simplification
portion of HIPAA and the Transactions, Privacy, and Security
Rules defined within it.
If you plan not to take the certification test, this manual
is still very helpful in understanding the HIPAA laws, its
penalties, how to start compliance etc. This is the official
