Appendix C: Privacy Plan

1. Answer the questions below (1a-1e) to describe your/central registry’s plan to protect the identifiable data from improper use and disclosure.

1a. How will data be stored?

Choose only one of the following options:

Data, which may include health information or other highly sensitive data will be stored with HIPAA identifiers.

You MUST choose this option if case report forms will include such items as initials.

Data, which may include health information or other highly sensitive data will NOT be stored with any HIPAA identifier except date(s). This means:

·  Documents such as case report forms will have NO HIPAA identifiers except dates (e.g. no initials or medical record #)

·  HIPAA identifiers, except dates will be stored in a different place than the health information/specimens. A code such as subject # 1 will be used to link the identity of the individual (HIPAA identifiers) with the persons health information.

o  EXAMPLE: The HIPAA identifiers with the code (e.g.- John Doe=subject #1) will be stored in one location (computer drive ,paper file, memory stick, CD) and the health information (diagnosis, radiology results) will be stored in a different location (different computer drive, paper file in a different file cabinet, memory stick).

1b. Will specimens be stored by the UVa study team?

If YES, the following security precautions will be implemented:

·  Specimens will be kept in a locked freezer/ or locked room

Choose only one of the following options:

Access to the freezer/room will be limited to authorized personnel. Specimens with HIPAA identifiers will never be shared outside of UVa without the written permission of the subject.

Specimens will be stored with a code and no HIPAA identifiers.

1c. Will any of the data be stored electronically by the UVa study team?

Yes No

►IF YES, will it include any HIPAA identifiers with health information or other highly sensitive data?

►IF YES, where will it be stored?

Health Systems Computing Services (HS/CS) managed server that is configured to store data regulated by HIPAA.

Information Technology Services (ITS) managed server that is configured to store data regulated by HIPAA.

Server managed by the principal investigator’s department or school that is configured to store data regulated by HIPAA or highly sensitive data. The Principal Investigator should verify with their department that the server they plan to use is configured to store data regulated by HIPAA.

1d. Will any of the data be collected or stored in hard copy format by the UVa study team (e.g. on paper) ?

Yes No

►IF YES, where will it be stored?

Case report forms will be stored in a secure area with limited access.

Questionnaires/ surveys will be stored in a secure area with limited access.

Other -specify:

1e. The following procedures will also be followed.

·  Only investigators for this study and clinicians caring for the patient will have access to the data. They will each use a unique log-in ID and password that will keep confidential.

·  Each investigator will sign the University’s Electronic Access Agreement forward the signed agreement to the appropriate department as instructed on the form.

If you currently have access to clinical data it is likely that you have already signed this form. You are not required to sign it again.

·  UVa Institutional Data Protection Standards will be followed

http://itc.virginia.edu/security/dataprotection. Identifiable data is considered to be “Highly Sensitive”. A Limited Data Set is usually considered to be “Moderately Sensitive” and de-identified data is usually considered to be “Not Sensitive”.

·  If identifiable data (data with health information and HIPAA identifiers) is transferred to any other location such as a desktop, laptop, memory stick, CD etc. the researcher must follow the University’s “Electronic Storage of Highly Sensitive Data Policy”. Additional requirements may be found in the Universities Requirements for Securing Electronic Devices.

·  If identifiable health information is taken away from the UVa Health System, Medical Center Policy # 0218 will be followed.

·  The data will be securely removed from the server, additional computer(s), and electronic media according to the University's Electronic Data Removal Policy.

·  The data will be encrypted or removed if the electronic device is sent outside of UVa for repair according to the University's Electronic Data Removal Policy.

·  If PHI will be faxed, researchers will follow the Health System Policy # 0194.

·  If PHI will be emailed, researchers will follow the Health System Policy # 0193 and UVa Institutional Data Protection Standards .
