PASADENA, CA May 31, 2002 -
Integrated Digital Technologies Corp., a leading provider of industry certified
training, today endorsed the HIPAA Academy program and plans to deliver the
acclaimed HIPAA Academy Professional and Administrator awareness
training.

"The HIPAA Academy is here to educate people on the Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act," said Allen Nguyen, President of
the HIPAA Academy. "We help companies get the facts and learn how to develop a
successful business plan to develop a team and become HIPAA compliant. You must
know what is involved in the Administrative Simplification title before you can
truly get started."
The HIPAA Academy structure is unique in that it
delivers baseline HIPAA knowledge and competence in the core skills that are
broadly required for Healthcare Executives, Senior Clinicians, Chief Information
Officers, Lawyers, Compliance Officers, Privacy and Security Officials, Quality
Assurance and Risk Managers, Insurance Executives, Physicians and Office
Managers, Pharmaceutical Company Executives, and Clinical Trial Organization
Professionals.
Business professionals in the health care and insurance
industries as well as IT professionals would find the HIPAA Academy programs as
the critical first step for acquiring HIPAA knowledge and skills to participate
as valuable members of HIPAA compliance teams within
organizations.
“We are excited to be
able to bring this crucial knowledge to our customers,” said Juan Rodriguez,
President and CEO of Integrated Digital Technologies Corporation. “As our
customers focus on the specifics of HIPAA, our partnership with the HIPAA
Academy will play a key role in helping our customers design an effective plan,
make the necessary changes, and efficiently integrate the requirements with
technology.”
The HIPAA Professional exam
validates knowledge and skills in the core areas of HIPAA Administrative
Simplification legislation, Transactions and Code Sets Requirements, Privacy
Requirements and Security Requirements. The HIPAA Administrator exam validates
knowledge and skills of end users that are responsible for delivery and support
of health care services and administration.
Proctored exams for Certified
HIPAA Professional and Certified HIPAA Administrator will be available across
hundreds of testing centers in the United States in July
2002.
