Certified HIPAA Security Officer (CHSO) Boot Camp & Certification

Certified HIPAA Security Program

The Certified HIPAA Security Program is designed to educate Healthcare Professionals and Business Associates understand HIPAA Security (45 CFR Part 160 and Subparts A and C of Part 164) and guide them with their compliance requirements of this law.

Certified HIPAA Security Officer (CHSO)

The Certified HIPAA Security Officer is the first tier of a three-level certification program. The CHSO is the basic level and the same has been designed to ensure that individuals that complete this program have a basic understanding of HIPAA Security and the Standards of the law. The actual course work consists of approximately 24 courses, testing after every course and the opportunity to become a Certified HIPAA Security Officer after taking and passing our level examination test (see below for more information).

Certified HIPAA Security Program Bootcamp

The Certified HIPAA Security  Officer (CHSO) Bootcamp consists of an intense day covering the basics of HIPAA Security, the three basic Safeguards (Administrative, Physical and Technical) and the Standards covered under each, plus a brief overview of the key laws that apply to HIPAA Security. In addition to this review of HIPAA Security, this Bootcamp will also prepare attendees to take the Certified HIPAA Security Officer Examination.

The CHSO Bootcamp is taught by CHSOs who, in addition to having passed the test, are experts and have extensive experience in the areas they will cover. The CHSO Bootcamp is approximately eight hours long and includes a working lunch, a basic manual and the ability to ask questions/review after all presentations have been finalized.

CHSO Certification Test

The CHSO certification test consists of approximately 100 questions covering the basics of HIPAA, HIPAA Security Standards and Key laws dealing with HIPAA Security such as the HITECH Act and the Omnibus Rule. The test is timed and candidates have approximately two hours to complete the same.

The CHSO test can only be taken at specified testing centers at specified designated dates. The CHSO test is normally scheduled as part of the EPI Compliance conferences but additional dates and locations may be pre-arranged on a case by case basis.

Prerequisite Requirements

There are no prerequisites for this level nor are there any other educational qualifications required.

 Test Composition

 The CHSO test is based on 5 sections. The actual distribution of questions and scores is as follows:

Section Description Score (%)
1 HIPAA General Information 10
2 Administrative 30
3 Technical 20
4 Physical 20
5 Legal 20

Obtaining the CHSO certification is based on candidates passing every section with a minimum score of 70%.

Exam retake policy
