Dear Doctor,

Thank you for your order of the HIPAA Policy and Procedure Manual.  The Manual comes in both PDF and Word formats. You can use either, though the Word (DOC) format is easier to modify for your office.

• The PDF version of the Manual requires the Adobe PDF Reader. If you do not have a version of Adobe PDF Reader installed on your computer, or do not have the ability to view or print PDF files, you’ll need to install PDF Reader. Please go to http://get.adobe.com/reader/ and follow the installation instructions there before you try and use the Employer’s Guide. 

• The WORD version of the Manual requires Microsoft Word, or a Word-compatible word processing program.

How To Access the Manual's Files

To download the HIPAA Policy and Procedure Manual, please follow these instructions:

1. On the lower left of the screen you will find the Login area.
2. Log in with Username "hippaowner" and Password "hippaowner".
3. Once logged in, a new menu called Purchased Products will appear on the left side.
4. Select HIPPA Manual Files from the Purchased Products menu.
   
5. Click on the version you want (Word or PDF) and it should download and open on your computer automatically. 

How To Use the Guide's Files

It will be helpful/useful for you to read through the manual once from start to finish to become familiar with both the HIPAA rules, and the contents of the Manual. You should assign your Privacy Officer (which may be the doctor, an office manager, etc.), then print the manual and keep it available in the office in a 3-ring binder.

Please let me know if you have any questions or comment.

EMPLOYER’S GUIDE HELP

The Employer’s Guide is a set of files that can be used on-line from any computer or any type of computer that has internet access without downloading and installing it. Just follow the instructions below.

When you access the Employer’s Guide files you will notice in the file list there are three columns. The first lists the file. Click on that to see a description of what the file is about and information about it. Click on “PDF” to open the PDF version of the file. Click on “DOC” (where available) to open the Microsoft Word version of the file in Word.
 

The Employer's Guide file itself breaks down, generally, into three sections. The first is information pertaining to hiring and firing procedures, law, and guidance. The second is the forms section, which contains a variety of forms to aid you in implementing the advice in the Guide. Finally, the last section is a comprehensive model Employee Handbook. You should read the Employee Handbook - Annotated before you begin to use the Employee Handbook. There are changes you will need to make, and a checklist is included with the annotated version to make it easy for you to personalize the handbook for your office.

HIPAA POLICY AND PROCEDURE MANUAL INSTRUCTIONS
