Research Patient PHI

Tenet must meet specific conditions of the HIPAA Privacy Rule which describe how protected health information may be used or disclosed by covered entities for research purposes. Tenet can use or disclose PHI for research with or without individual authorization depending on the situations outlined in this policy. When patient authorization is required to use or disclose PHI for research purposes, Tenet must make sure to get a valid authorization and ensure that the use and disclosure of the PHI aligns with what the authorization says.
