Secondary PHI Sample Clauses

The 'Secondary PHI' clause defines how protected health information (PHI) may be used or disclosed for purposes beyond the primary reason it was originally collected, such as for research, public health, or administrative functions. This clause typically outlines the conditions under which secondary uses are permitted, including any required patient consent or de-identification of data. Its core function is to ensure that any additional uses of PHI are clearly regulated, thereby protecting patient privacy while allowing necessary secondary activities.
