Louisville, KY -- (SBWire) -- 06/02/2010 -- emPower provides e- learning courses as mandated by the U.S. Government and other regulatory bodies like HIPAA, OSHA, Joint Commission and Red Flags rule. The successful passage of the new Health plan of Obama Government and resultant health care regulations have made it mandatory for the Covered health service providers, Practices and their Business Associates to achieve complete compliance to stay on the right side of the law. This, they can easily do by providing proper compliance training to their employees and in process eliminate expensive compliance risks. The latest amendment to HIPAA Privacy and Security rule, which came into effect from February 17, 2010, makes it mandatory for all the Covered entities to revise their Business Associate Contract.

emPower has made changes to their existing HIPAA catalog to accommodate the new changes that has become effective no later than February 2010.

We have introduced an online course – to explain the changes and the new law and how it affects you and your vendor.
