About the Course

Course Description

Let's face it - nobody likes compliance courses. They're typically boring and monotonous, and it can feel like pulling teeth (pun intended!) Amy breaks through the barrier of boring compliance "geek speak" and uses real-life case studies, experiences, and humor to make the information clear, easy to retain, and even enjoyable! Learn some HIPAA basics, how they have changed over the years, and what is reasonable and appropriate for your size of practice. Amy will break down what is applicable to your dental practice and give you some easy tips to get (and stay) compliant.

Learning Objectives

  • Know the basics of HIPAA, the HITECH Act, and the Omnibus Final Rule
  • Identify where your Protected Health Information is located and how to protect it
  • Know who your Business Associates are and how to lower the risk they pose to your practice
  • Identify your vulnerabilities
  • Create a short- term and long-term action plan to get and keep your practice HIPAA compliant

Meet the Instructor

Amy Wood, HCISPP
CEO of Copper Penny Consulting

Amy didn't plan a career in compliance-it found her after her own personal information was compromised in a data breach. Seeing how overwhelming that experience was inspired her to help healthcare practices become proactive instead of reactive-and fueled her mission to help them avoid the same stress and disruption.

For more than ten years, Amy has helped organizations simplify HIPAA, strengthen cybersecurity, and build confident teams. As CEO of Copper Penny Consulting, she translates complicated regulations into practical, engaging education that sticks.

Amy's goal is simple: protect practices, protect patients, and prevent the next breach.
