CHPSE Testimonials Completing the Certified HIPAA Privacy Security Expert (CHPSE) course has been a challenging and growing experience. The course covers a vast amount of information but is flexible and allows you to complete at your convenience. This is a resource I intend to use as I move forward in my role on our HIPAA team.

I would recommend this training to anyone looking to expand their knowledge and understanding of HIPAA Privacy and Security rules and requirements. Thank you Hilary Frank HR Operations Coordinator Kforce Professional Staffing The Supremus Group's HIPAA Privacy Security Expert (CHPSE) program was a very challenging experience. The training programs provided covered the full spectrum of knowledge necessary for HIPAA Compliance. As a Security and Network Architecure Consultant, the program challenged my skills and allowed me to attain a certification that will allow me to provide a higher quality of service to my clients and it gives a professional certification to show my mutual investment as a Business Associate. Kirk Crespin Digital Connections Network Consulting I spent a great deal of time reviewing the many programs offered on-line for the various levels of Hipaa Certification and the contents offered in each study program before making my decision to invest in the CHPSE Course offered by The Supremus Group. Not only was I looking for a course that was very detailed in the information but also a company that had national and international recognition. I found both with The Supremus Group! The various subject matters covered in the course did give a general overview but then continued on into very definite details and useful examples in the areas of Hipaa Law requirements for the Hipaa Privacy & Hipaa Security Rule and making your health care organization Hipaa compliant. The course also covered changes in the Hipaa regulations due to the HITECH Act and ARRA which will serve as valuable knowledge throughout my career in H.I.M. The Power- Point slides and the lecturer for the course were both excellent at capturing and holding your attention and the course study book will serve as a great ongoing reference tool. Last but certainly not least there were more than a few times throughout the course that I had questions and there was not one time that they were not answered for me right away after submitting them via email. This is an excellent company with an excellent product! Thank You Bob Mehta and Supremus Group! Ella P. Gardner H.I.M.

Walter Boyd I am the Controller for a company that provides document management services to attorneys.

Each of the instructor's presentations focused on the specific issues faced by covered entities, and the test questions allowed me to view the various regulations from the perspective of a DHHS investigator. I look forward to using the information I learned in developing my law practice and resolving the specific HIPAA-related issues of my healthcare clients." -Amit Trivedi Anyone seeking a more comprehensive understanding of the HIPAA and HiTech rules and regulations should consider taking the Certified HIPAA Privacy Expert course through the Supremus Group.

CHSE Testimonials The course content was comprehensive and extremely informative. It was more informative than what I expected for an "on-line course", and having an actual lecturer speak the slides in the presentation, gave me an opportunity to retain more of the information. I just wish the test wasn't so hard!! :) Kerry Hannify Data-Mail, Inc I wanted to take a few minutes and thank you for the quality product from the Supremus Group. I had recently checked with some friends in the healthcare industry about HIPAA certifications and they pointed me to your website http://www.hipaatraining.net. After spending some time on the website, I decided to purchase the Online Anytime Training and associated manual for the Certified HIPAA Security Expert program (CHSE). Well, I have to admit that I was a bit anxious going forward with this computer based training, but as soon as I received it I was pleasantly surprised! The online training is broken into real-world modules and chapters that parallel exactly what is being taught in the book. By using the combination of the two, I was able to pass my CHSE test on the very first attempt. I strongly recommend this course material to anyone who wants to prepare for the certification and wants to enhance their knowledge in the area of HIPAA security. I feel that I am now able to better contribute to corporate security policies, access control systems, and many documented procedures in a more-comprehensive manner after my training. Thank You Bob and Supremus!! Thomas Coffy - CISA, CISSP, CHSE Senior Engineer, IT Security Office Abacus Technology Corporation Kennedy Space Center Florida This was a great and informative course that provided extensive background knowledge on HIPAA requirements. The book and online instruction were invaluable in assisting our company to understand and develop policies that were applicable to the unique structure of our BPO projects. I highly recommend anyone seeking a more comprehensive understanding of HIPAA Security Standards to take this course. Detra Jackson Telamon Corporation When deciding on a HIPAA course to take I had reviewed a number of vendors offering a range of courses. I realized that for my needs, IT technical, I would not need a course that covered all of the transactions and other information that a practice manager would need. After careful consideration and a few conversations with Bob Mehta of the Supremus Group I decided that their CHSE course was a good fit. I took the on line version which enabled me to fit the training in at my pace and during times that were good for me. Running a business and a family was more taxing that I had originally thought. I was able to better work around these issues with the web based course. The course was thorough and detailed. I was able to obtain a practice test that helped me better prepare for the final exam. I recommend this course to anyone. Robert Lane ASE, Inc. The Certified HIPAA Security Expert training was phenomenal. Computer Based Training (CBT) is a great learning experience for me combining visual, audio, and hands on application using the practice exam. Page 10 of 18

Ed Sorensen Information Security Administrator Jupiter Medical Center I would like to take a moment to express my thanks for your wonderful program, the CHSE course. In our ever changing world of technology, I was beginning to feel a bit lost in regards to the regulations and what meets the criteria of security of our electronic and digital PHI (ephi) for HIPAA purposes. This course has really given me a lot of insight and understanding of how HIPAA security is applied in the realm of technology. It has expanded my knowledge in the areas of how security and privacy rules relate to technologies both in and out of the office (mobile media). It has also helped me work on a implementing a strong security policy, advanced safeguards and a comprehensive risk assessment plan for my organization. Stephen Engel - Administrator Summit Home Health Care TO Prospective candidates taking the Supremus Group CHSE course: Taking this course on line was not as easy as my ASQ certification as a Quality Auditor.
