The intent of REDCap is to collect data responsibly and securely according to the appropriate regulations and review board, including:
the Privacy Regulations and the Security Regulations under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act ("HIPAA") of 1996 and its implementing regulations and guidance, all as amended from time to time;
the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act ("HITECH Act"), as incorporated in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, and its implementing regulations and guidance issued by the Secretary, all as amended from time to time;
and to abide by all guidelines provided by the Institutional Review Board (IRB).
If the project utilizing REDCap involves human subjects research it must have been submitted to the Institutional Review Board (IRB) for review or exemption and obtain IRB APPROVAL before the project will be moved to production and data collection can commence (per the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS).
The project owner will provide the CTSC with the approved protocol, approved protocol date, and IRB number.
The collection of Protected Health Information (PHI; per the HIPAA Privacy Rule) requires that the REDCap project database be hosted by the CTSC Informatics behind the firewall of the Health Sciences Center, and that access from outside of the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center will require the use of a secure HSC Net ID.
Users will not share their login credentials with other study personnel working on the project. Login credentials are obtainable for collaborators outside the University system.
