SECTION II WORK STATEMENT
1. BACKGROUND

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) has requirements that nonprofit hospitals
must satisfy to maintain their tax-exempt status under section 501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue
Code. One such requirement added by the ACA, Section 501(r) of the Code, requires nonprofit
hospitals to conduct a Community Health Needs Assessment (CHNA) and adopt implementation
strategies to address the identified needs for the community at least once every three years. As
part of the CHNA, each hospital is required to collect input from the community from individuals
in the community, including public health experts as well as residents, representatives, or leaders
of low-income, minority, and medically underserved populations. Maricopa County Department of
Public Health (MCDPH) and the Maricopa County Synapse coalition, a coalition of non-profit and
federally qualified health care partners, worked collaboratively and will assess the health needs
of residents in Maricopa County.

Goals
MCDPH is committed to ensuring a comprehensive representation of Maricopa County residents.
Our goals align with Healthy People 2030 and Public Health 3.0 which is guided by social
determinants of health and increasing capacity building and community collaboration.
e Attain high-quality, longer lives free of preventable disease, disability, injury, and
premature death*
e Achieve health equity, eliminate disparities, and improve the health of all groups*
e Create social and physical environments that promote good health for all*; and
e Promote quality of life, healthy development, and healthy behaviors across all life
stages*.

Data Collection and Assessments Methodology

MCDPH uses the Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP 2.0), which is
a community-driven strategic planning process for improving community health. The MAPP 2.0
framework helps communities apply strategic thinking to prioritize public health issues and
identify resources to address them. It is intentionally an interactive process that can improve the
efficiency, effectiveness, and ultimately the performance for local public health and healthcare
systems (MAPP 2.0, NACCHO.org). For more information visit:
https:/Awww.naccho.org/programs/public-health-infrastructure/performance-
improvement/community-health-assessment/mapp

The County conducts the following assessments in alignment with MAPP 2.0: Community Partner
Assessment, Community Status Assessment, and the Community Context Assessment. These
assessments are completed through conducting key informant interviews, focus groups, and
surveys to provide extensive qualitative and quantitative data collection. The County also
analyzes data sets (Per Primary Service Area) and conducts comparisons. These assessments
and analysis are then incorporated with extensive quantitative data sets such as:

Hospital Discharge Data from ADHS

Birth/Death from Vital Records

CDC’s Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System

CDC’s Youth Behavioral Risk Surveillance System

Arizona Youth Survey

National Cancer Institute-Cancer Registry

Healthy People 2023 and other sources that address priority

SECTION IV BUSINESS ASSOCIATE AGREEMENT
BUSINESS ASSOCIATE AGREEMENT

This Business Associate Agreement (“BAA”) sets out the responsibilities and obligations of
Maricopa County Department of Public Health (‘Associate") as a Business Associate (as defined at 45
C.F.R.§ 160.103) of ADELANTE HEALTHCARE (“ADELANTE HEALTHCARE’) pursuant to the agreement
between Associate and ADELANTE HEALTHCARE dated , as well as all future
agreements entered into by the Parties (collectively, the “Agreement’). Associate and ADELANTE
HEALTHCARE (individually a "Party" and collectively the "Parties") agree to the terms and conditions of
this BAA in order to comply with the use and disclosure of Protected Health Information (“PHI”) (as defined
at 45 C.F.R.§ 160.103) provisions of the Standards for Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information,
at 45 C.F.R. Parts 160 and 164, Subparts A and E, as amended from time to time (the “Privacy Rule”); the
Security Standards for the Protection of Electronic PHI, 45 C.F.R. Parts 160 and 164, Subparts A and C
(the "Security Rule"); and the standards for Notification in the Case of Breach of Unsecured PHI, 45 C.F.R.
Part 164, Subpart D (the "Breach Notification Rule") (collectively, the “HIPAA Rules”). Unless otherwise
provided herein, all capitalized terms in this BAA will have the same meaning as provided under the HIPAA
Rules and HITECH (as defined below). Associate and ADELANTE HEALTHCARE will comply with the
terms of this BAA for the duration of the Agreement and for such other continuing periods as provided in
this BAA. This BAA shall supersede any and all prior business associate agreements entered into between
the Parties.

1. USES AND DISCLOSURES OF PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION.

a. Performance of Services. Associate will use and disclose PHI only for those purposes necessary
to perform its duties, obligations, and functions under the Agreement, or as otherwise expressly
permitted or required by this BAA or as Required by Law. Associate will not use or further disclose
any PHI in violation of this BAA or in a manner that, if done by ADELANTE HEALTHCARE, would
violate the Privacy Rule.

b. Limited Data Sets. Associate will limit any uses, disclosures, or requests of PHI to a Limited Data
Set, as defined in 45 C.F.R. § 164.514(e)(2), or if needed by Associate to the minimum necessary
PHI required to accomplish the intended purpose of the use, disclosure, or request, as defined by
the Privacy Rule, pursuant to the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health
Act (“HITECH"), and any regulations or guidance promulgated thereunder by the Secretary. For
any disclosures of PHI pursuant to this BAA, the Party disclosing the PHI shall determine what
constitutes the minimum necessary to accomplish the intended purpose of the disclosure.

c. Data Aggregation. Associate may use PHI to perform data aggregation services as permitted by
45 C.F.R. § 164.504(e)(2)(i)(B).

d. Associate’s Management and Administration. Associate may use or disclose PHI for the
necessary management and administration of Associate, or to carry out the legal responsibilities of
Associate, provided that if Associate makes a disclosure of PHI:

i. The disclosure is Required by Law; or

ii. Associate first secures written assurances from the receiving party that the
receiving party will: (i) hold the PHI confidentially; (ii) use or disclose the PHI only
as required by law or for the purposes for which it was disclosed to the recipient;
and (iii) notify the Associate of any breaches in the confidentiality of the PHI.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties explicitly agree that unless the de-identification
requirements in Section 1(e) of this BAA are met, Associate’s use of PHI in demonstrating its
services or product to an outside third party is strictly prohibited by this BAA.

e. De-Identification. Associate may de-identify the PHI, provided that such de-identification is in
accordance with 45 C.F.R. § 164.514(b)92) and such resulting de-identified information is only

16

SECTION IV BUSINESS ASSOCIATE AGREEMENT.

used or disclosed for Associate’s internal business purposes. Associate may not commercialize or
sell the de-identified information to a third party.

f. Prohibition on Off-Shoring PHI. Associate agrees that no PHI may be created, received,
maintained, accessed, or transmitted outside of the United States of America, which shall be
construed as one of the fifty United States or one of the United States territories (i.e., American
Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and Virgin Islands).

2. SAFEGUARDS FOR PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION. Associate will implement
appropriate safeguards to prevent any use or disclosure of PHI not otherwise permitted in this BAA.
Associate also will implement administrative, physical, and technical safeguards to protect the
confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the electronic PHI, if any, that Associate creates,
receives, maintains, or transmits on behalf of ADELANTE HEALTHCARE. Associate will also
comply with the applicable requirements of Subpart C of Part 164 of the Security Rule in the same
manner such provisions apply to ADELANTE HEALTHCARE.

3. REPORTS OF IMPERMISSIBLE USE OR DISCLOSURE.

a. Notification of an Impermissible Use or Disclosure of PHI. Associate will report to ADELANTE
HEALTHCARE any use or disclosure of PHI not permitted by this BAA, including any Breach of
Unsecured PHI, as soon as reasonably practicable but in all events, within five (5) business days
of its discovery.

b. Notification of Security Incidents. Associate also will report to ADELANTE HEALTHCARE any
Security Incident of which it becomes aware within five (5) business days of its discovery.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Associate and ADELANTE HEALTHCARE acknowledge the
ongoing existence and occurrence of attempted but unsuccessful Security Incidents that are trivial
in nature, such as pings and port scans, and ADELANTE HEALTHCARE acknowledges and agrees
no additional notification to ADELANTE HEALTHCARE of such unsuccessful Security Incidents is
required. However, to the extent that Associate becomes aware of an unusually high number or
pattern of unsuccessful Security Incidents due to the repeated acts of a single party, Associate
shall notify ADELANTE HEALTHCARE of these attempts and provide the name, if available, of
said party. At the request of ADELANTE HEALTHCARE, Associate shall use its best efforts to
identify the date of the Security Incident, Associate’s response to the Security Incident and the
identification of the party responsible for causing the Security Incident, if known.

c. Content of Notifications. Associate's notices provided under this Section 3 will include, to the
extent possible, the identification of each Individual whose PHI has been, or is reasonably believed
by Associate to have been, accessed, acquired, used, or disclosed during or as a result of the
impermissible use or disclosure of PHI, or a Security Incident (“Security Event”). Associate shall
also provide ADELANTE HEALTHCARE with at least the following information: a description of the
Security Event, including the date of the Security Event and date of discovery, if known; a
description of the types of PHI involved in the Security Event; any steps Individuals should take to
protect themselves from potential harm as a result of the Security Event; and any other information
requested by ADELANTE HEALTHCARE related to the Security Event. Associate shall
supplement such notice with further information as it becomes available, even if such information
becomes available after Individuals have been notified of the Security Event.

d. Cooperation by Associate. Associate agrees to cooperate with ADELANTE HEALTHCARE in
the investigation of a Security Event and understands and agrees that ADELANTE HEALTHCARE
in its sole discretion will determine whether or not a Security Event is a Breach and/or triggers
notification obligations.

e. Obligation to Provide Notifications. In the event that Associate, or its Workforce members or
Subcontractors cause a Security Event, or a Security Event occurs while PHI is in Associate’s
possession or is being transmitted by Associate, Associate agrees that ADELANTE HEALTHCARE
may, in its sole discretion, require Associate to provide all notifications that ADELANTE

HEALTHCARE is required to make pursuant to the Breach Notification Rule and any other
applicable laws. ADELANTE HEALTHCARE shall have the right to review, direct, and approve or
reject the contents or manner of such notifications.

f. Cost Reimbursement and Indemnification. Associate also agrees to indemnify and reimburse
ADELANTE HEALTHCARE for any costs incurred in investigating, mitigating, and otherwise
responding to a Security Event caused by Associate or its Workforce or Subcontractors, or a
Security Event occurs while PHI is in Associate’s possession or is being transmitted by Associate,
including costs related to providing legally required notifications, as well as credit monitoring
services for at least one (1) year to the extent the Security Event involved social security numbers
or financial account information.

4. SUBCONTRACTORS. In accordance with 45 C.F.R. §§ 164.308(b)(2) and 164.502(e)(1)(ii), if
Associate provides PHI to a Subcontractor, Associate shall ensure that the Subcontractor agrees
in writing to substantially the same, but at least as stringent and protective as to ADELANTE
HEALTHCARE and the PHI, as the restrictions and conditions that apply in this BAA to Associate
with respect to such information, including the safeguards required by Section 2. Associate shall
maintain a list of its Subcontractors and will provide ADELANTE HEALTHCARE with a copy of such
list upon reasonable request.

5. OBLIGATIONS REGARDING ASSOCIATE PERSONNEL. Associate will appropriately inform
and train all of its Workforce members (“Associate Personnel”), whose services may be used to
satisfy Associate’s obligations under the Agreement and this BAA of such Associate Personnel’s
HIPAA Rule and HITECH obligations so as to enable Associate to comply with the terms of this
BAA. Associate represents and warrants that the Associate Personnel are under legal obligation
to Associate, by contract or otherwise, sufficient to enable Associate to fully comply with the
provisions of this BAA.

6. ACCESS TO PHI.

a. ADELANTE HEALTHCARE Access. Within five (5) business days of a request by ADELANTE
HEALTHCARE for access to PHI held by Associate in a Designated Record Set, Associate will
make the requested PHI available to ADELANTE HEALTHCARE, in the time, manner, and format
requested by ADELANTE HEALTHCARE, including electronically if Associate maintains the PHI
electronically and the requested form and format is readily producible, or, if not, in a readable
electronic form and format as agreed to by ADELANTE HEALTHCARE and the Individual. Any fee
that Associate may charge for providing the access required hereunder must be reasonable, cost-
based, and determined in accordance with 45 C.F.R. § 164.524(c)(4).

b. Individual Access. If an Individual requests access to PHI directly from Associate, Associate will
notify the Individual that it will forward the request to ADELANTE HEALTHCARE. Within five (5)
business days of the request, Associate will forward such request in writing to ADELANTE
HEALTHCARE. ADELANTE HEALTHCARE will be responsible for making all determinations
regarding the grant or denial of an Individual’s request for PHI and Associate will make no such
determinations. Only ADELANTE HEALTHCARE will release PHI to the Individual pursuant to
such a request.

7. AMENDMENT OF PHI. Within five (5) business days of receiving a request from ADELANTE
HEALTHCARE to amend an Individual’s PHI held by Associate in a Designated Record Set,

amendment, Associate will incorporate such amendment within five (5) business days of receipt of
ADELANTE HEALTHCARE’s request. Associate will forward to ADELANTE HEALTHCARE within
five (5) business days any requests by Individuals to Associate to amend PHI within its or
ADELANTE HEALTHCARE's possession. ADELANTE HEALTHCARE will be responsible for
making all determinations regarding amendments to PHI, and Associate will make no such
determinations.
