$TXT Created by THOMPSON,TONY at CPRS27.FO-SLC.MED.VA.GOV (KIDS) on Tuesday, 09/25/07 at 11:08 ============================================================================= Run Date: MAR 19, 2008 Designation: GMTS*2.7*85 Package : GMTS - HEALTH SUMMARY Priority: Mandatory Version : 2.7 SEQ #80 Status: Released Compliance Date: APR 19, 2008 ============================================================================= Associated patches: (v)GMTS*2.7*58 <<= must be installed BEFORE `GMTS*2.7*85' Subject: RESTRICT SENSITIVE DATA ON HEALTH SUMMARY PRINT Category: - Routine - Data Dictionary - Other Description: ============ Patients are often given printed Health Summaries for items such as a formatted list of medications. Because these items are Health Summaries, they also contain a standard header which displays the patient's name, DOB, and full 9-digit SSN. Patients, not recognizing that such sensitive information is present, may improperly dispose of the list. To help protect this sensitive information, this patch adds a new field (SUPPRESS SENSITIVE PRINT DATA) to the HEALTH SUMMARY TYPE file (#142) to allow control over the level of information displayed on a hard copy print of a predefined health summary type. Depending on the value found in the new field, the SSN/DOB information will be in one of the following formats: -Full 9 digit SSN and full DOB -4 digit SSN and No DOB -No SSN and No DOB Affected Functionality ======================== Predefined health summary type printouts produced from CPRS GUI, List Manager, and print menus within the Health Summary package. Table of interface used, action taken, and expected output Action Interface Output ==================================================================== View report on screen CPRS GUI Full SSN/DOB info GMTS print options Full SSN/DOB info List Manager SSN/DOB based on flag value Hard copy print CPRS GUI SSN/DOB based on flag value GMTS print options SSN/DOB based on flag value List Manager SSN/DOB based on flag value Additionally, the display of a health summary object will be affected by this patch. Information displayed from a health summary object is controlled by the choices made during object creation/modification and the underlying health summary type. Unless otherwise suppressed during object creation/modification, health summary objects will respect the value of SUPPRESS SENSITIVE PRINT DATA found for each object's health summary type. This applies to viewing objects in electronic AND hard copy format. Usage note regarding List Manager: The patient information header in List Manager is separate from the header found on health summary reports. Any changes to the patient information header are outside the scope of this patch. As a result, any hard copy print of a predefined health summary via the List Manager interface will still have viewable patient SSN and DOB data. Note - In an effort to address the urgency of this effort, Ad Hoc health summaries were excluded from this request.
