Today, the HIPAAtrek team is happy to release two updates that will impact your navigation and interaction with the HIPAAtrek platform.
First, we have updated the sidebar menu navigation so that your navigation options stay in place within the menu bar without requiring your mouse to hover over options. This update is intended to streamline your navigation in an efficient manner.
Second, we have updated the Policy Group Page (click on any Policy Group in the Policies Module to see this page). This update will support bulk updates with a “select all” option, increase editing functionality directly on each policy listed, and add a list view option in addition to the existing view.
Please take a moment to watch the video presentation, shown in the player below, which introduces and demonstrates each of these changes. (Remember to select fullscreen mode on the player for a better viewing experience.)
Today the HIPAAtrek team is happy to release an improved Announcement center. This improvement is designed to give you better visibility into the latest features we are rolling out at HIPAAtrek. As with our old announcement page, you can expect to find product updates, news regarding regulatory changes, and announcements of updated resources for your use. Our goal is to keep you informed and engaged with the tools and resources that help you maintain HIPAA compliance and protect patient data.
Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for being a valued part of the HIPAAtrek community.
