"This program on HIPAA did a great job providing actionable concepts in a way that updated our team and me, I now know how I will implement the concepts because I already did it in their online seminar, it was easy to ask questions from the speaker at the end of my 60 minutes course."
"David Vaughn covered the material completely and I have a new understanding of when, where and why we need to use an ABN"
"Great presentation. Able to do during the day. Timing was great."
