On demand courses
Navigating HIPAA to Protect You and Your Patients

Dental team members need to understand the role HIPAA plays in their daily practice lives. Yet many do not participate in the required annual HIPAA training. HIPAA requirements deem that practice specific documentation be maintained, but often teams don’t maintain the information. This self-study pre-recorded video course will review HIPAA requirements and what teams need to know to protect the patient’s protected health information (PHI). The program is not designed to replace a practice’s individualized information, but to provide teams with the information needed to update their protocols.

Investigating Cyber and the New Frontier in Dentistry: AI

This two-part self-study course will investigate the importance of understanding cyber-security to protect patients and practices and then review opportunities for artificial intelligence in dentistry.
