Commission provides rental aid to a veteran, discusses annual HIPAA training
Summary
Minutes from the April 9 meeting show the commission authorized one month of rental assistance for a veteran after four of five commissioners approved via message; commissioners also discussed completing annual HIPAA/PII training together and setting a date.
At the April 9 meeting of the Kossuth County Commission of Veterans Affairs, Director Daniel D. Green administered one month of rental assistance to a veteran in need and recorded that he had messaged commissioners for approval. The minutes state that four of five commissioners replied in favor and the county provided support for the current month.
Commissioners discussed compliance training for handling protected information (HIPP/PII). The minutes note a plan to complete the State of Iowa HIPP/PII training annually and to consider holding a single group session to meet that requirement; the group discussed scheduling the session, with one suggestion that it be held at Commissioner Troy Brandt’s residence. The training vendor or link noted in the minutes is an online state course portal referenced as a State of Iowa resource.
No formal vote on a training policy was recorded; the minutes frame the discussion as direction to set a date for group completion. The minutes also record the administrative action on rental assistance as completed for the current month and do not specify a recurring funding source.
