Course Overview

How do hospitals, clinics, and insurers keep patient records secure while still providing quick access to life-saving information? The answer isn’t just technology—it’s governance. In a world where a single breach can destroy trust, healthcare organizations must balance patient care, legal compliance, and data security all at once.

This training takes you inside the world of healthcare records management, from handling Protected Health Information (PHI) to meeting stringent regulatory requirements like HIPAA and GDPR. You won’t just learn the rules—you’ll practice applying them. Through real-world case studies and practical exercises, you’ll discover how to protect sensitive data, ensure compliance, and build a culture of accountability in your organization.
