Dentistry
Patient medical and dental information retained by the College is protected by State and Federal laws which prohibit any disclosure without specific written consent of the person to whom it pertains, or as otherwise required by law. Patient healthcare data that is maintained electronically provides considerable access and management advantages. The potential for misuse of this confidential information has prompted significant governmental regulatory measures and standards legislation. In response, the College will be continually modifying its clinical and non-clinical security and privacy procedures in order to remain compliant. This currently includes random audits of appointments, providers and users who access patient information in our Clinical Information Systems (axiUm and MiPacs).
By using collegiate information technology facilities and resources, users agree to abide by all related University and College procedures and policies, are subject to normal requirements of University and collegiate ethical behavior, as well as applicable federal, state, and local law. Violations may result in University and/or collegiate disciplinary action or referral to appropriate external authorities.
