Course Description
Texas social workers are expected to stay informed about changing healthcare privacy and compliance requirements that can affect daily practice, professional ethics, and licensing obligations. Our Texas Social Workers Bundle was created specifically for social workers practicing in Texas who need training related to HIPAA, Texas H.B. 300, and Human Trafficking for Healthcare Professional requirements for individuals with access to protected health information (PHI).
Failing to properly protect patient information can result in serious penalties under both Texas and federal law. Texas civil penalties for wrongful disclosure of PHI can range from $5,000 to $1.5 million, along with additional federal HIPAA fines.
This training bundle is designed to help Texas social workers better understand their compliance responsibilities, strengthen patient confidentiality practices, and stay current with state and federal healthcare privacy regulations.
