Why should we have confidentiality agreements with our employees?<br />
The purpose of the employee confidentiality agreement is to ensure that an employee of a provider will<br />
maintain the confidentiality of protected health information. Employers that are regulated under HIPAA<br />
typically require employees to sign an employee confidentiality agreement to verify that they know the<br />
rules and restrictions on patient data. It also helps document that the employer took the necessary steps<br />
to educate employees about the HIPAA policy for employees. The employee confidentiality agreement<br />
can help protect organizations from claims that employees were not advised and trained on rules and<br />
regulations in the event of a disclosure.<br />
