The instructor was very accommodating in our training session. I had several situation-specific questions that required some research on his part. He did this research and was able to answer my questions. He allowed me to interrupt the training module with thoughts and questions and did not get irritated. He constantly sought feedback to ensure that he was moving at a pace that I was comfortable with and that I understood what we were reviewing.

Strengths of the course: Provided background on the topic as well as outlined how HIPAA/privacy/security affects our company. Also, Instructor made the topic, with its unfamiliar terminology, easy to follow and understand.
I found this course to be extremely valuable, as I was previously unfamiliar with the details regarding HIPAA regulations and now feel confident in discussing HIPAA and how the rules apply to our organization (as well as others). The onsite training instructor provided was geared toward our operations, which was more helpful than providing hypothetical examples. He is also very knowledgeable on the topic and provided valuable resources that are able to reference now that the class has concluded. I would recommend this course to other organizations.

The training provided by Chris Apgar was thorough, and tailored to our company’s needs. Chris was willing to respond to questions about specific client situations and provide the legal reasoning behind his assessment. He also brought the legislation “to life” through examples of real companies and their challenges. The sessions provided by Chris were interactive and engaging, far more than anyone expected.

We have several clients who are either HIPAA covered or are a hybrid of HIPAA and non-HIPAA covered entities. I thought the presentation stimulated very useful internal discussion. The training will help our company articulate a set of ethics and guidelines as we work with our clients and their medical data. In general, I thought the information was very useful in the area of privacy and security.
