Staffing Company FAQs
Why should I use a staffing company?
Working for a staffing company
such as Excel gives you flexibility, independence, and choice. Temporary
work allows you to try out a prospective employer and showcase your
skills and may provide a bridge to permanent employment. Many people
choose temporary work as an employment option. You can select your
work schedule and choose among a variety of diverse and challenging
assignments. Whether you are between jobs and looking for full-time
work, or you want the independence and flexibility of temporary positions,
a staffing company is an excellent resource.

Why are people working in medical offices and
hospitals concerned about HIPAA?
HIPAA stands for Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act. Compliance
with the Privacy Rule, which is an element of HIPAA that impacts
people working in health-related facilities, was required as of April
14, 2003. The Privacy Rule contains requirements to protect the privacy
and security of protected health information (PHI). PHI is any information
related to the individual's health, health care, or payment for health
care. Complying with HIPAA privacy regulations means being aware
of day-to-day interactions with patient information to ensure patient
privacy is protected. If you are assigned to work in a health-related
facility, you must ensure that PHI is not disclosed inappropriately,
accidentally, or negligently.
