All schools, departments, clinics, programs, or functions that meet the definition of a covered entity under HIPAA have been designated as University Health Care Component (“UHCC”). To ensure compliance with HIPAA, the PHI Privacy Policy and PHI Protection Standard both require that all UHCC Workforce members must complete annual HIPAA training. Training is developed and provided by the WVU HIPAA Privacy and Security Team.
