Research Compliance: The Research/Privacy Nexus C. Brandi Hannagan, JD Senior Regulatory Specialist UC Davis Health Compliance

The Privacy Nexus in Research You are a member of the UCD Health Workforce UCD Health is a Covered Entity (CE) under Federal HIPAA Law All CEs (and its workforce) are responsible for complying with HIPAA The CE is required to ensure that access to its patient information is in accordance with the law PRIMARY ISSUE FOR RESEARCHERS: When can you access patient records?

When are We Able to Access Patient Records?

Access with Authorization

Authorization Issues

Access Without Consent: What are the Research-Related Exceptions?

Access Without Consent: Waiver of HIPAA Authorization Granted by IRB during submission process Access must match the brief description of the PHI for which use or access has been determined to be necessary by the IRB Must comply with Accounting of Disclosures (HIPAA Rule and UCD Health P&P)

Access Without Consent: Preparatory to Research Access available prior to IRB approval For preparatory purposes only Submit request to: https://ctscassist.ucdmc.uc davis.edu/redcap/surveys/? s=VRGYXq8PVW

Preparatory to Research Requests What do you need the data for? What information do you need to review? Whose PHI do you want to see? What is the desired data source? Have you considered cohort discovery?

Access Without Consent: Decedent Research Access available through compliance (must also get approval from IRB if access involves death certificate) Representation from the researcher that the use or disclosure being sought is solely for research on the protected health information of decedents, that the protected health information being sought is necessary for the research. Submit request to: https://ctscassist.ucdmc.ucdavis.edu/redc ap/surveys/?s=VqdaAG8o6M

For All Access Without Authorization: Must Account for Disclosures HIPAA requires covered entities (UCD Health) to maintain records of certain disclosures without authorization, including disclosures to researchers (not part of the covered entity) including disclosures pursuant to a waiver of authorization, preparatory to research reviews, and decedent research (45 CFR 164.528) UCD Health P&P 2446: Personnel who receive (view/disclose) protected health information (PHI) of the CE without a patient’s written authorization are responsible for accounting for this access

EMR Surveillance Program Process by which we review EMR users’ access to patient records to determine if access in the EMR is for a legitimate purpose Do this to: Comply with HIPAA requirements that we have appropriate safeguards in place to ensure privacy Comply with HITECH Security rules to ensure we have appropriate monitoring activities Do this to mimic federal privacy audits & ensure compliance with P&Ps

Is this access appropriate? Hypothetical: Surveillance identifies access by CRC Homer to Patient Marge’s PCN encounter on 7/20/17. Homer BTG and entered protocol #123 as the reason. We know the following: Protocol #123 was approved on 10/30/16 IRB also approved a Waiver for Recruitment purposes on 10/30/16 Homer is listed on the RPL There is no signed consent, HIPAA Authorization, or disclosure tracking in Marge’s record Is this access appropriate?
