One of HIPAA's requirements is that every Covered Entity have a properly constituted manual of Policies and Procedures that complies with all of HIPAA's requirements. You must also be able to show evidence that every employee has read your Policies and Procedures and has agreed to abide by them.

The HIPAA Store provides a complete set of model Policies and Procedures that you can modify and use in your medical practice or healthcare organization. These model Policies and Procedures have been carefully crafted to be fully compliant with HIPAA’s requirements. They are delivered to you on CD-ROM, ready to be customized for your particular needs. Use a few - or use them all - the choice is up to you.
