Final answer:

HIPAA training needs to be completed by employees, but employee medical records do not necessarily need to be filed unless requested or required.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement is partially true. HIPAA training does need to be completed by employees who handle protected health information (PHI) to ensure they understand how to handle and protect health information in compliance with HIPAA regulations. However, employee medical records do not necessarily need to be filed unless requested by the patient or required by applicable laws or regulations. It is important to maintain the confidentiality and privacy of employee medical records, but the specific requirements for recording and filing may vary depending on the organization and legal requirements.
