Privacy Act of 1974; Report of an Altered System of Records 
Medical Staff Credentials and Privileges Records

AGENCY: Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Indian Health 
Service (IHS).

ACTION: Amendment of one altered Privacy Act system of records.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 1974, as 
amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4), the IHS has amended and is publishing the 
proposed alteration of a system of records, System No. 09-17-0003, 
``Medical Staff Credentials and Privileges Records.'' The amended and 
altered system of records makes several administrative revisions which 
includes the deletion of the Social Security Numbers (SSNs) language to 
comply with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum (M)07-
16, Safeguarding Against and Responding to the Breach of Personally 
Identifiable Information (May 22, 2007); and the HHS Directive 
Memorandum of October 6, 2008 to all Operating Division Heads to 
develop and execute a plan to eliminate the unnecessary collection and 
use of SSNs; and the inclusion of a new routine use to comply with OMB 
(M)07-16 and the HHS Memorandum dated September 19, 2007 to incorporate 
Notification of Breach Routine Use language; and the update of the 
Appendix 1 of the SOR.

DATES: Effective Dates: IHS filed an altered system report with the 
Chair of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, the 
Chair of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental 
Affairs, and the Administrator, Office of Information and Regulatory 
Affairs, OMB on September 9, 2009. To ensure that all parties have 
adequate time in which to comment, the altered SOR will become 
effective 40 days from the publication of the notice, or from the date 
it was submitted to OMB and the Congress, whichever is later, unless 
IHS receives comments on all portions of this notice.

ADDRESSES: The public should address comments to: Mr. William Tibbitts, 
IHS Privacy Act Officer, Division of Regulatory Affairs, Office of 
Management Services, 801 Thompson Avenue, TMP Suite 450, Rockville, MD 
20852-1627; call non-toll free (301) 443-1116; send via facsimile to 
(301) 443-2316, or send your e-mail requests, comments, and return 
address to: William.Tibbitts@ihs.qov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Contact Paul Fowler, D.O., J.D., IRS 
Risk Management Officer, Office of Clinical and Preventive Services, 
Suite 331, 801 Thompson Avenue, Rockville, Maryland 20852 or via the 
Internet at Paul.Fowler@ihs.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As required by the Privacy Act of 1974, as 
amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a(e)(4), this document sets forth the amendment of 
the proposed alteration of a system of records maintained by the IRS. 
The purpose of altering System No. 09-17-0003, ``Medical Staff 
Credentials and Privileges Records,'' is to enable IRS to reflect 
current program changes, statutory and implementation changes. The 
exclusion of SSN language; the inclusion of a new routine use and 
revision or modification of the IHS addresses in Appendix 1 is 
necessary to this system of records.

SYSTEM NAME:
    Indian Health Service Medical Staff Credentials and Privileges 
Records, HHS/IHS/OCPS.

SECURITY CLASSIFICATION:
    None.

SYSTEM LOCATION:
    Each IHS Area Office and each IHS Service Unit (see Appendix 1). 
Records may also be located at hospitals and offices of health care 
providers who are under contract to IHS. A current list of contractor 
sites is a available by writing to the appropriate System Manager (Area 
or Service Unit Director) at the address shown in Appendix 1.

CATEGORIES OF INDIVIDUALS COVERED BY THE SYSTEM:
    Prospective, current and former IHS medical staff members. The term 
IHS medical staff includes fully licensed individuals permitted by law 
to provide patient care services independently and without concurrent 
professional direction or supervision, within the scope of his/her 
license and in accordance with individually granted clinical 
privileges. The IHS medical staff includes physicians (M.D. and D.O.) 
and dentists and may include other health care practitioners such as 
psychologists, optometrists, podiatrists, audiologists, and, in some 
States, certified nurse midwives. Types of

[[Page 46437]]

assignment categories of current and former IHS medical staff members 
include the following:
    Provisional--Those new members of the medical staff who are serving 
a required initial probationary period, as specified in the local 
medical staff bylaws. During this time, their qualifications for 
membership on the active or courtesy IHS medical staff are assessed.
    Active--Those members who are Federal employees and/or spend at 
least fifty percent of their professional time providing patient care 
related services in the facility.
    Temporary--Those members who provide services on a short-term basis 
or have applied for active medical staff membership and are awaiting a 
full credential review.
    Courtesy or Associate--Those members who generally provide services 
on a periodic or episodic basis (e.g., consultants for specialty 
clinics).

CATEGORIES OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM:
    Contains name, SSN, IHS medical staff membership and privileges 
applications and associated forms, employment data, liability insurance 
coverage, credentialing history of licensed health professionals, 
personal, educational, and demographic background information, 
professional performance information consisting of continuing 
education, performance awards, and adverse or disciplinary actions, and 
evaluations and approvals completed by IHS medical staff reviewers.

AUTHORITY FOR MAINTENANCE OF THE SYSTEM:
    Federal Records Act (44 U.S.C. 2901), Privacy Act of 1974, as 
amended (5 U.S.C. 552a), Indian Self Determination and Education and 
Assistance Act (25 U.S.C. 450), Snyder Act (25 U.S.C. 13), Indian 
Health Care Improvement Act (25 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), Indian Health 
Service Transfer Act (42 U.S.C. 2001-2004).

PURPOSE(S):
    The purposes of this system are:
    1. To ensure that IHS medical staff members are qualified, 
competent and capable of delivering quality health services consistent 
with those of the medical community at large and that they are granted 
privileges commensurate with their training and competence and with the 
ability of the facility to provide adequate support equipment, 
services, and staff.
    2. To inform health care practitioner(s) and staff of health care 
facilities, State or county health professional societies or licensing 
boards to whom the subject individual may apply for clinical 
privileges, membership or licensure, of the subject individuals 
professional competence, character and ethical qualifications. This may 
include information regarding drug or alcohol abuse or dependency. 
Within the Department such releases may be made to personnel staffs of 
HHS Regional Offices.
    3. To provide adverse health care practice information to the 
National Practitioner Data Bank-Healthcare Integrity and Protection 
Data Bank (NPDB-HIPDB) established under Title IV of Public Law 99-660, 
the Health Care Quality Improvement Act of 1986, and Section 221(a) of 
Public Law 104-191, the Heath Insurance Portability and Accountability 
Act of 1996. The purpose of such a release is to provide information 
concerning a current or former IHS medical staff member whose 
professional health care activity failed to conform to generally 
accepted standards of professional medical practice.
    4. To provide health care practice information concerning current 
or former members of the IHS medical staff with Commissioned Corps 
status to the Division of Commissioned Personnel, U.S. Public Health 
Service, so that an informed decision may be made concerning the 
promotion, retention, or reassignment of the subject individual.

ROUTINE USES OF RECORDS MAINTAINED IN THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING CATEGORIES 
OF USERS AND THE PURPOSES OF SUCH USES:
    1. Records may be disclosed to organizations authorized to conduct 
evaluation studies concerning the delivery of health care services by 
the IHS (e.g., Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare 
Organizations).
    2. IHS may disclose records consisting of name, employment history 
and any professional qualification information concerning medical staff 
membership and privileges, professional competence, clinical judgment 
and personal character to a State or local government health 
professional licensing board, to the Federation of State Medical 
Boards, to the NPDB-RIPDB established under Title IV of Public Law 99-
660 and Section 221(a) of Public Law 104-191, and/or to a similar 
entity which has the authority to maintain records concerning the 
issuance, retention or revocation of licenses or registrations 
necessary to practice a health professional occupation or specialty.
    The purpose of this disclosure is to inform medical profession 
licensing boards and appropriate entities about the health care 
practices of a current, terminated, resigned, or retired IHS medical 
staff member whose professional health care activity significantly 
failed to conform to generally accepted standards of professional 
medical practice. This will be done within the guidelines for notice, 
hearing, and review as delineated in the medical staff bylaws for the 
IHS facility and/or within other HHS or IRS regulations or policies.
    3. IHS may disclose biographic data and information supplied by 
potential applicants to (a) references listed on the IHS medical staff 
and/or privileges application and associated forms for the purpose of 
evaluating the applicant's professional qualifications, experience, and 
suitability, and (b) a State or local government health profession 
licensing board, to a health-related professional organization, to the 
Federation of State Medical Boards, and to the NPDB HIPDB established 
under Title IV of Public Law 99-660 and Section 221(a) of Public Law 
104-191 or a similar entity for the purpose of verifying that all 
claimed background and employment data are valid and all claimed 
credentials are current and in good standing.
    4. Records may be disclosed to other Federal agencies (including 
the Office of Personnel Management for subject individuals applying for 
or maintaining Civil Service appointments)/to State and local 
governmental. agencies, and to organizations in the private sector to 
which the subject individual applies for clinical privileges, 
membership or licensure for the purpose of documenting the 
qualifications and competency of the subject individual to provide 
health services in his/her health profession based on the individual's 
professional performance while employed by the IHS.
    5. The Department may disclose information from this system of 
records to the Department of Justice (DOJ), or to a court or other 
tribunal, when (a) HHS, or any component thereof, or (b) any HHS 
employee in his or her official capacity; or (c) any HHS employee in 
his or her individual capacity where the DOJ (or HHS, where it is 
authorized to do so) has agreed to represent the employee; or (d) the 
United States or any agency thereof where HHS determines that the 
litigation is likely to affect HHS or any of its components, is a party 
to litigation or has an interest in such litigation, and HHS determines 
that the use of such records by the DOJ, the court or other tribunal is 
relevant and necessary to the litigation and would help in the 
effective representation of the governmental

[[Page 46438]]

party, provided, however, that in each case, HH determines that such 
disclosure is compatible with the purpose for which the records were 
collected.
    6. Records may be disclosed to a congressional office from the 
record of an individual in response to a verified inquiry from the 
congressional office made at the written request of that individual.
    7. In the event that a system of records maintained by the IHS to 
carry out its functions indicates a violation or potential violation of 
law, whether civil, criminal, or regulatory in nature, and whether 
arising by general statute or particular program statute, or by 
regulation, rule or order issued pursuant thereto, the relevant records 
in the system of records may be referred to the appropriate agency, 
whether Federal, State, or local, charged with enforcing or 
implementing the statute or rule, regulation or order issued pursuant 
thereto.
    8. To appropriate Federal agencies and Department contractors that 
have a need to know the information for the purpose of assisting the 
Department's efforts to respond to a suspected or confirmed breach of 
the security or confidentiality of information maintained in this 
system of records, and the information disclosed is relevant and 
necessary for that assistance.

POLICIES AND PRACTICES FOR STORING, RETRIEVING, ACCESSING, RETAINING, 
AND DISPOSING OF RECORDS IN THE SYSTEM:
STORAGE:
    File folders and computer-based or electronic files.

RETRIEVABILITY:
    Indexed and retrieved by name, and any other identifying numbers 
necessary to establish the identity of an individual whose record is 
maintained in the system of records.

SAFEGUARDS:
    1. Authorized Users: Access is limited to authorized personnel for 
use in the performance of their official duties. Authorized personnel 
include: Physician Recruitment and other Health Professions Branch 
Staff and Area Governing Board Members at IHS Area Offices, and Service 
Unit Directors, Clinical Directors and members of the Credentials and 
Privilege Committee of each IHS Service Unit. At each location where 
records in this system will be maintained, a list of personnel or 
categories of personnel having an official need-to-know has been 
developed and is maintained.
    2. Physical Safeguards: Records are kept in locked metal filing 
cabinets or in locked desk drawers in secured rooms at all times when 
not actually in use during working hours and at all times during non-
working hours. Record storage areas, including file cabinets and desks, 
are not left unattended or unlocked during office hours, including 
lunch hours. Computer-based or electronic records are password 
protected security and any additional internal security for database 
(linked or unlinked).
    3. Procedural Safeguards: Persons who have an official need-to-know 
are entrusted with records from this system of records and are 
instructed to safeguard the confidentiality of these records and to 
destroy all copies or to return such records when the need to know has 
expired. Instructions include the statutory penalties for 
noncompliance. Proper charge-out procedures are followed for the 
removal of records from the area in which they are maintained. Before 
an employee who will control disclosure of records can work with the 
records (i.e., employees who report to the system manager) the system 
manager or designee ensures that the employee has received training in 
the safeguards applicable to the records and is aware of the actions to 
take to restrict disclosure. When copying records for authorized 
purposes, care is taken to ensure that any imperfect pages are not left 
in the reproduction room where they can be read but are destroyed or 
obliterated.
    4. Implementation Guidelines: DHHS Chapter 45-13 and supplementary 
Chapter PHS.hf:45-13 of the General Administration Manual; DHHS, 
``Automated Information Systems Security Program Handbook,'' as 
amended; DHHS IRM Policy HHS-IRM-2000-0005, ``IRM Policy for IT 
Security for Remove Access; OMB Circular A-130 ``Management of Federal 
Information Resources''; and E-Government Act of 2002 (Pub. L. 107-347, 
44 U.S.C. Ch 36).
    5. Retention and disposal: Records are maintained by IHS for at 
least ten years after the individual's termination of employment or 
association with IHS. Records of unsuccessful applicants for medical 
staff membership will be retained for three years after his/her 
rejection. After these periods of retention expire, records are 
destroyed by shredding or burning.
