4. I studied hard for my CHPA. The course work was challenging for me.
   I found the Supremus Group LLC, namely Bob Mehta to be highly professional, supportive and extremely HIPAA knowledgeable.
   It did not matter when I e-mailed or when I telephoned, Bob Mehta consistently got back with me on a very timely manner and worked with me to answer questions and provide me with detailed information regarding the CHPA course and concepts. I applaud Bob Mehta as if it was not for him and his support, I do not believe I would have succeeded.

6. The CHPA course was very detailed but in a format that was easy to follow. The information was all inclusive. I have been in the medical profession for almost 30 years and learned quite a bit of information taking this course. I feel that we all need to refresh our memory regarding important information in the medical field. The issue of privacy is one of the most important issues we have to deal with. People are sharing very detailed and personal issues with me and I am in a very important position as to how I treat that information. I always thought that I had a healthy respect of others personal information and how I treat that information. I have found that I take a new attitude toward the professionalism of nursing after going through this process of CHPA certification. This process will assist me through my life in improving the care I give those I interact with both on a professional as well as private level.
