All
members of the UCD community with access to individually
identifiable health information need to be “hip to HIPAA” – the
federal law that requires us to protect patient confidentiality.
Listed below are UCD’s HIPAA education requirements and
training options. HIPAA
101: Our General HIPAA
Course Our online HIPAA 101 course can be accessed at the CU Online home page (click here for instructions) and can be completed in about an hour. You’ll need Microsoft Explorer to use the online module. If you are paid by UCD your PeopleSoft employee ID number will serve as both your username and password for the course. If you are a student at UCD your username is your student ID number and your password is your PIN number. If you need help obtaining your login and password, call (303) 72H-IPAA or e-mail HIPAA@UCHSC.edu. Affiliates: If you are located at or rotate through The Children’s Hospital, Denver Health, National Jewish, University Physicians, Inc., or University of Colorado Hospital, you may take that institution’s HIPAA 101 training instead of ours. We have all agreed to accept training taken at any of the affiliated institutions. If you spend even 30 minutes at the VA in the course of a year and have access to protected health information, you must complete the VA’s training and will not be given credit by the VA for training taken at another institution. UCD will give credit for the VA’s training and you will not have to take UCD’s HIPAA 101. For information on accessing the VA's training click here. Please print the certificate you receive at completion of the VA’s training and mail a copy of the certificate, along with your contact information, to the UCD HIPAA Compliance Office at Campus Box A095 to receive credit.
