[2] There are interactions between two or more constructs that ensure the ability to meet security and privacy requirements. For example, in order to ensure entities are authenticate to assure that the entity is the person or application that claims the identity, HITSP/C19 Entity Identity Assertion and HITSP/C26 Nonrepudiation of Origin work together to support this requirement. Similarly, to guarantee or assure authenticity of data transmitted, these same two constructs, along with HITSP/TP13 Manage Sharing of Documents (with Document Integrity inserted as an option) work together to support this requirement.
[3] Good Samaritan Act - To trigger the protection of such an act, two conditions must be satisfied: it must be a volunteer act, and the actions must be a good faith effort to help. In the medical sense, a Good Samaritan is a medical care professional who volunteers to help someone in need of emergency medical care. The act must be done without there being any duty to care for the patient and without any expectation of compensation.
[4] ISO/IEC Guide 73:2002 definition 3.1.1 Risk management Vocabulary Guidelines for use in standards.
[5] ISO 14971:2000, Application of Risk Management to Medical Devices definition 2.18.
[6] This discussion follows the ISO 22600 Health Informatics Privilege Management and Access Control and the current working draft of that standard.
[7] In November, 1999, President Clinton signed the Financial Services Modernization Act, more commonly known as Gramm-Leach-Bliley or GLB, after the Congressional sponsors of the Act. The main purpose was to overhaul the financial services industry. But privacy provisions were added to GLB near the conclusion of Congressional proceedings giving consumers new rights to notice and consent regarding the information-sharing practices of financial institutions. Title V of GLB gives consumers a right to opt-out, that is, to prevent sharing or other disclosures of personal information to third-party non-affiliates.
