Unsecured PHI Clause Samples
The "Unsecured PHI" clause defines what constitutes protected health information (PHI) that is not properly secured according to applicable standards, such as those set by HIPAA. In practice, this clause clarifies that PHI which is not encrypted or otherwise rendered unusable, unreadable, or indecipherable to unauthorized individuals is considered unsecured. For example, if patient records are stored in plain text or on unprotected devices, they would be classified as unsecured PHI. The core function of this clause is to establish a clear standard for data protection, ensuring that parties understand their obligations to safeguard sensitive health information and the consequences if such information is not adequately protected.
