HealthEC e-Learning is a secure web-based tool that allows organizations to train large numbers of employees and staff without tying up resources that are needed for conducting and coordinating typical instructor-led training sessions. Employees and staff can easily gain access from a standard web-browser and have the flexibility of taking courses according to their schedules, from any location they are at and at any pace they choose. Users get additional flexibility from bookmarks that allow the user to exit the e-Learning site at any point and then return to the exact location where they had left off.
HealthEC e-Learning offers general HIPAA awareness
as well as role-based training on privacy and
security. Course curriculum has been developed
by long-time industry HIPAA experts, thus guaranteeing
that it is current and accurate given the constantly
changing regulations. Courseware can also be customized
or modified to meet an organization’ s specific
business needs.
User knowledge of the course material is tested
through quizzes that follow each course chapter.
These knowledge tests offer a unique way of reinforcing
what has been learned and organizations can set
their own passing grade criteria if desired. In
keeping with HIPAA requirements, the tool also
offers a status reporting module that monitors
the user’ s progress and allows the organization’s
compliance officer to record/document the training
that has been administered.
HealthEC can be private labeled to reflect to
reflect the look and feel that the company prefers.
This includes incorporating company logos, colors,
graphics and further customizing the reporting
module.
HealthEC thus allows organizations to maximize
their training return on investment (ROI). By
easily becoming a part of the normal business
processes, it results in fast learning and therefore,
faster HIPAA compliance.

How good are your HIPAA Transactions?
At IGI we believe that even though your Transaction
Sets may be "HIPAA ready" they may not
necessarily be HIPAA compliant. By HIPAA compliant
we mean, transactions that have been tested and
validated for quality, quantity and business needs.
We believe that
your best bet in getting your transaction sets
and your trading partners' "HIPAA Ready"
is IGI's HIPAA Transaction Testing Tool (HT-3).
HT-3 is an automated HIPAA Transaction Testing
Tool. This proprietary automated tester ensures
the integrity and effectiveness of your Transactions
Sets. HT-3 conforms to the HIPAA Implementation
Specifications as recommended by WEDI/SNIP
What is the HT-3?
The HT-3 is a testing tool that is capable of
testing transactions for data content (generic
HIPAA as well as trading partner specific implementation
guides), data format, business rules and telecommunications.
The HT-3 verifies that a company can actually
send or receive HIPAA X12n compliant transactions
as per the implementation guides from May 2000
and later. More specifically, HT-3 ensures the
following:
Quality of transactions
with respect to
 EDI mapping
Efficient Transmission
Data Dictionary,
Codes Sets Utilization
Impact on prior version
Quantity of transactions
pertaining to
Translation Performance
Testing before mass deployment
Business Rules in
terms of
Business/industry needs being
met
End to End or Loop testing
Parallel Processing

Levels
of Compliance Testing
In addition to Transaction Sets testing, the HT-3
can also evaluate your company's compliance efforts
based on the different levels of testing as laid
out by SNIP. Thus, HT-3 can be used for the following
levels of compliance testing:
-
Integrity Testing: At this level,
the HT-3 ascertains the EDI syntax integrity
with respect to valid segments, loops, elements
and codes.
-
Requirement Testing: In this
case, the HT-3 checks the system for HIPAA Specification
Requirements. This involves checking for repeating
counts, code usage, situational data elements,
etc.
- Balancing: HT-3 monitors segment
counts, transaction counts, financial balancing
and summarizes data elements at this stage.
-
Situation Testing: When inter-segment
dependencies are involved the HT-3 informs the
system of whether a particular situation requires
a particular code or not.
- Code Set Testing: HT-3 validates
external codes such as: CPT4,ICD-9-CM, HCPCS,
claims status codes, provider taxonomy codes,
etc.
-
Line of Business Testing: HT-3
has the ability to undertake specialized testing,
examples are ambulance, chiropractic, podiatry,
home healthcare etc.
