Medical Record Acquisition
Acquiring the record is step one.
Regulations regarding privacy and security protocol are in place to protect patient confidentiality. Acquiring medical records from any provider requires significant approval processes. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and The Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act place a burden on the research community to validate how all patient data will be handled, who will handle it, and what measures will be taken to protect the data.
ICE has been in business since 2006 and is experienced in guiding our customers through this process. All business associate (BA) and data use agreements (DUA) must be signed by authorized individuals in every organization. ICE will work with our clients to supply them with security documents and process models to satisfy NIST Acceptable Risk Safeguard (ARS) standards.
Once your project is approved, ICE utilizes a specialized tracking and workflow system to complete project objectives. Contact ICE today to learn more about how we can help your organization.
