SERIAL 250052-RFP 
 
 
EXHIBIT B - SCOPE OF WORK 
 
The following information is from contractor responses to the solicitation Proposal Supplement 
Questionnaire. 
  
4.0 Benefit Provisions 
4.1 Describe your pre-determination of benefits process (offered in County’s current plan), including 
whether it is mandatory or optional.  
Predetermination for general dentistry is not required because we provide network general dentists 
with coverage guidelines for the range of services they perform. These include diagnostic and 
preventive services, restorative dentistry, crowns and bridges, partial/complete dentures, root canal 
therapy, minor oral surgery, preliminary periodontal therapy. 
The network general dentist directs most referrals for specialty care (with the exception of orthodontic 
care, which the member can access directly without a referral, and pediatric care, since children under 
age 13 may have a network pediatric dentist as their primary care dentist). Referrals to obtain care with 
a network specialist do not require prior authorization. Predetermination for network specialist care is 
also not required but is available upon request. 
Patient charges listed on the patient charge schedule (PCS) may apply at the specialist’s office based 
on the specialty care coverage for the specific PCS. If a member elects to have treatment not covered 
on the PCS, they are responsible for paying the dentist’s normal fee. 
Specialty referrals are valid for 90 days from the date of issuance. After the expiration date, the system 
automatically purges the specialty referral. 
We send notifications of predetermination-of-coverage decisions to dentists by mail and make them 
available to members through myCigna, a secure website. We send notification of claim payment 
decisions to members and dentists in writing (by mail), and we only call the dentist when we need 
additional information or clarification (verbal) to make a predetermination decision. 
4.2 Describe in detail how you will handle dental treatment already in process at the beginning of 
the contract. Include orthodontia coverage in your response. 
As the incumbent carrier, this is not applicable to current members. 
For new members, inlays/onlays initiated prior to Cigna must be completed under the terms of the 
previous carrier. 
There may be a contribution toward orthodontic benefits in progress. The contribution, if any, is a 
predetermined amount based on the coverage/number of months remaining (excluding the months for 
retention) at the start date to complete the interceptive or comprehensive treatment. It is important to 
note that enrollment does not modify any obligation members have to their original contract with their 
orthodontist, even if the dentist participates in our dental network. 
4.3 Describe in detail how you will handle dental treatment already in process at the end of the 
contract. Include orthodontia coverage in your response. 
Coverage for a dental procedure (crown, root canal treatment, bridge, denture, and partials) that 
starts before disenrollment from the dental plan extends for 90 days after disenrollment, unless 
attributed to nonpayment of premiums.  
4.4 Explain continuity of care arrangements for procedures started but not completed at the 
beginning and end of the contract (must, at a minimum, meet those in current contract). 
Coverage for a dental procedure (crown, root canal treatment, bridge, denture, and partials) that 
starts before disenrollment from the dental plan extends for 90 days after disenrollment, unless 
attributed to nonpayment of premiums. 
4.4.1 
Describe any pre-existing condition limitations in your plan. 
The product does not exclude pre-existing conditions when the treatment is generally otherwise 
covered by a procedure code(s) listed on the Patient Charge Schedule. 
4.5 Indicate all benefit limitations and/or exclusions in your contract proposal. 
As the incumbent, we do not have any benefit limitations/exclusions.

As the incumbent carrier, Maricopa County employees are familiar with our DHMO plan offering. 
However, we welcome opportunities to ‘reeducate’ employees through recorded webinars, onsite 
meetings, and home mailers to review the benefits of the DHMO plan.

7.2 Provide a description of the customer service training program.         
We provide seven weeks of in-depth training to our customer service advocates (CSAs). CSAs spend 
the first three weeks in a classroom environment where they learn how to handle member coverage 
and eligibility questions. The new hires then receive a week of on-the-job training handling live 
coverage and eligibility calls. During the next two weeks, they receive training on more complex 
member and dentist questions, followed by a week of additional on-the-job training. We then assess 
and verify their skills through testing and hands-on demonstration of simulated and live calls. 
Following these seven weeks, trainees receive a permanent assignment. The manager and quality 
management team continually monitor staff to ensure they are providing quality service. We measure 
this through live call monitoring, post-recorded call handling, and external customer service survey 
responses. Trainers communicate performance expectations throughout training, and their manager 
reinforces it through routine counseling. CSAs’ customer service skills continue to be developed on 
the floor through experience, targeted coaching, and additional training pushed to each CSA’s 
desktop through an automated learning management system.

7.6 Confirm that customer service representatives have the ability to view member information

8.0 Customer Service Performance 
8.1 Describe your customer service call recording system, inquiry tracking system, metric tracking, 
and reporting capabilities. 
Cigna uses Verint software to record 99 percent of incoming phone calls (1 percent are not recorded 
due to system maintenance and downtime). The tool captures and stores every aspect of a call to aid 
in performance evaluation and identify training needs. Callers hear a message informing them their 
call may be recorded or monitored for quality assurance. 
As part of Cigna’s continuous quality improvement (CQI) efforts, our CSAs use OneView, our desktop 
inquiry tracking system, to document every contact with members, whether received via phone, mail, 
or online. We track the following information: 
•
date of contact
•
member’s name and ID
•
nature of and reason for the inquiry
•
steps to resolve the issue
•
action taken to address inquiries not initially resolved and progress status
•
the representative who handled the call
•
the date the inquiry was closed out
Calls are not documented verbatim; they are summarized and formatted with codes within OneView. 
CSAs must complete documentation of the call before the call can be closed. 
We have the ability to provide the following reports monthly, quarterly, or annually, as requested: 
•
Phone Responsiveness - monitors telephone system accessibility/use; available on an ad
hoc basis at the client and service center level

SERIAL 250052-RFP 
•
Call Type - identifies the type and number of calls received over a specified period, sorted
by client; available on an ad hoc basis at the client level
•
Open Call - identifies and tracks open or unresolved inquiries; available on an ad hoc basis
at the client and service center level
8.1.1 
Provide sample client-specific reports generated from your customer service inquiry 
tracking system. 
Customer service uses several reports to identify trends and make process improvements. 
The following reports are available to Maricopa County: 
-
Phone Responsiveness - These client-specific reports monitor phone system accessibility
and use. They are available on an ad hoc basis at the client and service center level and
measure several performance metrics: number of calls received; number of calls answered;
call abandonment rate; average speed of answer (ASA).
-
Call Type - These reports, sorted by client, identify the type and number of calls received as
well as the resolution action that occurred over a specified period. They are available on an ad
hoc basis at the client level.
-
Open Call - These reports identify and track open or unresolved inquiries; they are available
on an ad hoc basis at the client and service-center level.
We are unable to provide samples of client-specific phone responsiveness and call type reports. These 
are only produced on an ad hoc basis and are considered proprietary. 
Describe your telephone call documentation requirements. 
We track correspondence in our call tracking database. The customer service department (verbal 
inquiries and complaints) or correspondence unit (written inquires) investigates and responds, 
preferably at first contact. We refer written general complaints, including those that relate to a request 
to overturn a coverage decision, to the national appeals team to handle as an appeal. We respond in 
writing (acknowledgement/resolution) within 30 days to members who have submitted a written 
complaint. 
For every type of complaint or inquiry, we enter pertinent information in the call tracking system. 
Documentation in the system should include the following: 
-
Who - member’s name and ID number; dentist’s name and ID number, if applicable
-
What - details of the member’s inquiry or complaint about Cigna Healthcare, dentists, or other
-
When - date of occurrence
-
Where - place of service
-
Why - member’s reason for inquiry or complaint and expected results from Cigna Healthcare
(We document what the CSA] or correspondence unit staff conveyed to the member.)
-
How - how the CSA or correspondence unit staff attempted to resolve the member’s issue
(We document the attempt, including information like dates and names of persons contacted;
CSAs must obtain a member’s permission to use their name when contacting the dental
office.)
Describe ability to document telephone metrics (average speed of answer and abandonment rate). 
Confirmed. We have the ability to document and measure customer service metrics. 
What is your 2024 year-to-date call abandonment rate for the customer service center? 
 In 2024, our abandonment rate was 1.0%. 
Provide your customer service center metrics for the last three months for all customer service 
options (call, chat, email). 
Year to date customer service metrics are not available. 
9.0 Employer Support 
9.1 Provide a description of your provider relations program including, but is not limited to, the 
process for dispute resolution between the member and the provider when a quality of care or 
quality of service issue arises. 
We match quality-of-service and quality-of-care complaints and inquiries to the treating health care 
provider via call documentation records that link the provider’s name and/or ID to the issue. The 
medical director or provider relations representative works with the provider to resolve the issue, 
keeping the member’s information confidential (as requested). We track complaints and use the 
information for trend reporting. 
9.2 Confirm you have a dedicated employer portal or website for the County. 
Confirmed.

SERIAL 250052-RFP 
 
9.2.1 
Describe the extent of data available for review by the employer including network 
providers and any network tiers/levels, enrollment, claims payments, and customer 
contacts, appeals, and grievances.   
Maricopa County will continue to have access to our dental microsite. The microsite can help Maricopa 
County find detailed information about our dental plans, programs, and offerings. On the marketing 
microsite, we host a variety of resources and tools so that clients can learn about everything that is 
available to them and to their employees with us. The site features up-to-date thought-leadership 
content, a welcome guide introducing you to your dental plan, dental health podcasts and videos, and 
more. Additionally, our client website provides tools and information to support clients in the following 
key areas: 
• 
claim inquiry  
• 
eligibility and coverage inquiry  
• 
automated eligibility management and reporting tool  
• 
employee enrollment and maintenance  
•

available the 1st business day of the following week. 
9.3 Confirm online access where the County can check or add eligibility for an employee and/or 
dependent.   
Confirmed. 
10.0 Network  
10.1 Confirm you are in compliance with the mandatory requirement that the network is owned by 
the proposer.   
Confirmed. 
10.2 Describe your network that is available to all members. Make sure your description includes 
where the network is currently operating and how long the network has been operating.      
The Cigna Dental Care® (DHMO) plan is operational in 41 states. Our dental networks are among the 
largest in the country, with more than 25,000 dentists in our DHMO Access Plus network—the largest 
of its kind in the country. We have specialized in dental program management since 1974, when 
Florida granted Dental Health, Inc., a certificate of authority to provide managed dental care. In 1984, 
Dental Health, Inc., became a subsidiary of The Cigna Group, marking the first entry of a major 
national insurance organization into the managed dental care field. 
In Arizona, our initial DHMO operation date is 1995. 
10.3 Confirm you have providers available in the event of an emergency, including after hours and 
on weekends.   
Confirmed. Our agreements with dentists require them to provide or arrange for emergency care 24 
hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year and to provide emergency attention within 24 hours of 
requests. If a member experiences a true dental emergency and receives care at an out-of-network 
dental office, the related bills are payable at the in-network level. Services and materials that are not 
considered an emergency are paid at out-of-network levels if care is received from an out-of-network 
dentist. 
10.4 Confirm there are no restrictions on provider access (e.g., limitation on new patients for certain 
providers).    
Dental offices may elect to restrict a portion of their practice to a particular insurance category. Once 
the practice reaches that level, the dentist may choose to raise the limit or block new enrollment to the 
office. We do not assign new members to offices that are not accepting new patients. 
10.4.1 If you are unable to confirm there are no restrictions  on provider access, note each 
individual provider currently under such restrictions.   
Network managers regularly monitor office capacity and projected growth. They contact dentists to 
discuss capacity expansion through staff increases or office hour changes. If these actions are not 
feasible, we consider adding more dental offices in that area. 
Dental offices may elect to restrict a portion of their practice to a particular insurance category. Once 
the practice reaches that level, the dentist may choose to raise the limit or block new enrollment to the 
office. We do not assign new members to offices that are not accepting new patients. 
We initiate enrollment blocking to a dental office should appointment wait times become excessive. 
Should a member select a closed dental office, we proactively assign that member to another office

SERIAL 250052-RFP 
 
accepting new patients (of which the member approves). If an office is closed to new enrollments, that 
office may make an exception if the member requesting transfer is already a patient of record. 
Members can always call us to request an override; a customer service advocate (CSA) immediately 
calls the office for approval. 
10.5 What is your current capacity to enroll new members with the current provider base?    
Currently, approximately 90% of network providers are open to new patients. 
10.6 What criteria do you use for the selection/credentialing of providers, if any?   
Each dentist interested in joining our network must go through a rigorous screening process to show 
they are licensed and that their certifications and credentials meet our standards. Our credentialing 
department/network managers review the following for each dentist to help ensure members receive 
the best care: 
• 
licensure in the state they provide services 
• 
compliance with OSHA and the CDC 
• 
current malpractice insurance and state license information 
• 
graduation from an accredited dental school 
• 
history of conviction for fraud or a felony as well as disciplinary action or litigation 
(Medicare/Medicaid 
opt-out, 
System 
for 
Award 
Management/General 
Services 
Administration/Office of Inspector General) 
• 
malpractice history from the National Practitioner Data Bank (NPDB) 
• 
specific office standards 
• 
collected general office and dentist data 
• 
board certification (if applicable) 
• 
DEA or state-controlled dangerous substance certificate (if applicable) 
• 
verification of specialty training (if applicable) 
We reverify the credentials of each participating dentist every three years. 
10.7 Describe any special training dentists receive from you, if any.   
To ensure a smooth transition into the Cigna Dental Care® Access network, we provide extensive 
training to dentists on how to successfully manage the program within their practice. 
Our professional relations managers review with new dentists the information in the Dental Office 
Reference Guide, which contains participation guidelines dentists must adhere to and includes a review 
of the program’s policies and procedures; the patient charge schedules (PCSs); and the compensation 
arrangement. They also conduct periodic phone conferences and onsite visits to provide dental offices 
with ongoing member feedback and transfer trends. In addition, our convenient website allows dentists 
to securely conduct transactions with Cigna and provides one-stop online access to information such 
as reference materials and forms needed to administer the plan. 
Further, the quality management department will provide an onsite audit and send a letter to the dentist 
afterward about quality-of-care and service issues. If necessary, the dental director, quality manager, 
or network manager will conduct additional phone conferences with the dentist to review the findings. 
The dental director coordinates the educational follow-up of network dentists about issues identified in 
the performance monitoring program. 
10.8 How many members do you currently service under your network program in Arizona? What is 
your provider to member ratio?      
Cigna has 604,035 members in the state of Arizona with a provider to member ratio of 1:92 for 
General Practice providers.  
10.9 What are your network development plans in Maricopa County and/or Arizona for 2026, 2027 
and 2028.       
Our standard plan designs offer a list of covered services for pre-negotiated fees no balance billing or 
claims to file. Plans that encourage a member's wellness promote efficient and cost-effective dental 
care that neither stimulate overutilization nor inhibit delivery of proper care. They also minimize 
member out-of-pocket expenses for diagnostic and preventive care, which are often a significant 
barrier to proper dental care. Rates are tied directly to the coverage under the plan. If member 
charges are lower, premiums are higher, so dentists are fairly paid. Conversely, if member charges 
are increased, premiums can be lowered. 
10.10 Describe the nature and length of the contract between your providers and your organization.  
Dental provider agreements expire on December 31 of each year; they automatically 
renew unless Cigna or the dentist ends the contract.  
10.11 If network gaps exist in areas where employees are concentrated, how would your firm 
propose to extend the network?

SERIAL 250052-RFP 
 
We strive for continued network growth to serve our members, and we have experienced significant 
growth year over year. When developing our recruitment plan, we identify 
• 
gaps between competitor offerings and our own; 
• 
additional member-access needs; and 
• 
any future needs for additional client acquisition. 
We also plan for growth that is due to client-specific requests. 
Please see page 4 of GeoAccess report where any gaps are reflected. 
10.12 Describe your utilization review procedure in terms of provider networks.   
A trained, experienced, licensed dental provider is responsible for performing the audit when an onsite 
review is warranted for existing network offices. This audit may include a chart review that investigates 
evidence of proper diagnosis, quality and quantity of radiographs, appropriate treatment planning, and 
appropriate treatment of any relevant dental conditions. The audit must show the adequate application 
of the available preventive and diagnostic measures. Network management staff and dental directors 
may counsel dentists as part of this focused audit. 
The results of office assessments are confidential in order to protect the patient's and dentist's 
confidentiality. 
10.13 Provide your unduplicated total network size in Maricopa County for each of the last three 
years: 2022, 2023 and 2024.     
2023: 2,853 providers      2024: 3,032 providers      2025: 3,081 providers 
10.14 If a member is having difficulty scheduling an appointment, what type of assistance does your 
company provide?     
We do not set the office hour requirements for network dentists; however, our Dental Office Reference 
Guide outlines expectations about the scheduling of dental appointments. Our target is for 
appointments to be provided at the same level as they would be for fee-for-service (FFS) patients and 
that members should be able to receive an appointment for routine care within four weeks of calling an 
office. Dentist contracts require dentists to provide or arrange for emergency care 24 hours a day, 7 
days a week and to provide emergency appointments within 24 hours of requests. 
Every inquiry about excessive wait time is investigated, and corrective action is taken if we determine 
that timely and efficient dental care was available and not provided. If we determine that excessive wait 
time was the result of insufficient capacity, we initiate actions to expand the dentist’s capacity or recruit 
additional dentists in that particular area. 
10.15 What are your requirements of the contracted general dentists when they are requesting 
authorization from your company, or anyone else, before they can refer a patient to a 
specialist?     
Network general dentists initiate patient referrals for endodontic and periodontal treatment as well as 
oral surgery. Referrals are confirmed for 90 days from the approval date. Specialty referrals are not 
required for orthodontic treatment or pediatric care for children up to 13 years old as long as members 
visit network specialists. Although not required for payment of services, the network specialist may 
submit a request for prior authorization to us for oral surgery and periodontal services. Members are 
responsible for the applicable patient charges listed on the patient charge schedule (PCS) for covered 
procedures. After specialty treatment is finished, the member should return to the network general 
dentist for care. 
If a network specialist is not available, the general dentist will refer the member to an out-of-network 
specialist and the member will only be responsible for charges listed on the PCS; however, Cigna 
Dental Care® Access (DHMO) network general dentists render the range of services that are required 
for graduation from dental school, including diagnostic treatment, preventive treatment, operative 
dentistry, crowns and bridges, partial and complete dentures, root canal therapy, minor oral surgery, 
preliminary periodontal therapy, and pediatric dentistry. Referral details follows: 
• 
Endodontist: Network general dentists refer members directly to a network specialist for 
treatment. 
• 
Periodontist: Network general dentists refer members directly to a network specialist for 
evaluation. 
• 
Oral Surgeon: Network general dentists refer members directly to a network specialist for 
evaluation. 
• 
Pediatric Dentist: Members can select a network pediatric dentist for children under age 13 
as their primary care dentist. (Although referrals are not required, a network general dentist 
may recommend that a child up to age 13 visit a network pediatric dentist for evaluation and 
treatment.)

SERIAL 250052-RFP 
 
• 
Orthodontist: Members can directly access care without a referral when seeing a network 
orthodontist. 
For each of the above, specialists may submit the treatment plan to us for coverage determination. We 
communicate the approved coverage to the specialist, network general dentist, and member. The 
specialist contacts the member to arrange treatment. Then, after the treatment is finished, we pay the 
specialist directly.

12.7 Describe your procedures to verify the continued eligibility of certain types of employees or 
dependents with respect to limiting ages, COBRA eligibility, and survivor eligibility?   
We do not verify student status. More specifically, we do not verify a dependent's age, student status 
(unless directly requested by the client), or disabled status. In addition, we do not provide over-age 
dependent verification, nor do we notify parents that their children are no longer eligible for coverage 
when they reach the dependent age limit.

DENTAL CARE ACCESS PLUS NETWORK (DCAP) WITH PATIENT CARE SCHEDULE (PCS) GX-V9 AZ 
Cigna Dental Care®  Plan Patient Charge Schedule 
This Patient Charge Schedule lists the benefits of the Dental Plan including covered procedures and 
patient charges. 
Important Highlights 
This Patient Charge Schedule applies only when covered dental services are performed by the member’s
Network Dentist, unless otherwise authorized as described in the member’s plan documents. Not all Network
Dentists perform all listed services and it is suggested that the member check with the member’s Network
Dentist in advance of receiving services. 
This Patient Charge Schedule applies to Specialty Care when an appropriate referral is made by the member’s
Network General Dentist to a Network Specialty Endodontist, Periodontist or Oral Surgeon. A referral is not
required for Specialty Care at a Network Specialty Pediatric Dentist or Orthodontist. The member may select 
a Network Pediatric Dentist for the member’s child under the age of 13 by calling Customer Service at
1.800.Cigna24 to get a list of Network Pediatric Dentists in the member’s area. Coverage for treatment by a
Pediatric Dentist ends on the member’s child’s 13th birthday; however, exceptions for medical reasons may
be considered on an individual basis. The member’s Network General Dentist will provide care upon the
member’s child’s 13th birthday. 
Procedures not listed on this Patient Charge Schedule are not covered and are the patient’s responsibility at 
the dentist’s usual fees. 
Infection control and/or sterilization are considered to be incidental to and part of the charges for services 
provided and not separately chargeable. 
This Patient Charge Schedule is subject to annual change in accordance with the terms of the group
agreement. 
Procedures listed on the Patient Charge Schedule are subject to the plan limitations and exclusions described
in the member’s plan book/certificate of coverage and/or group contract. However, additional benefits may be
available in certain states (e.g. Arizona), for Covered Services otherwise subject to a frequency limitation,
dependent upon the member’s Network General Dentist’s certification of dental necessity. Should any
applicable state regulation require coverage for a particular service, the listed exclusion or limitation for that
service shall not apply. 
All patient charges must correspond to the Patient Charge Schedule in effect on the date the procedure is
initiated. 
Current Dental Terminology ("CDT") codes are established by the American Dental Association (ADA) Council
on Dental Benefit Programs in accordance with authority granted by the federal government under the Health
Insurance and Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) as the national terminology for reporting 
dental services, and are recognized as the industry standard. The ADA publishes CDT as part of a reference
manual and may periodically change CDT Codes or definitions. Different codes may be used to describe these
covered procedures. The language in italics is intended to clarify the members’ benefit.

Crown and bridge – All charges for crowns and bridges (fixed partial dentures) are per unit (each replacement 
or supporting tooth equals 1 unit). Coverage for replacement of crowns and bridges is limited to 1 every 5 
years. 
For single crowns, retainer (“abutment”) crowns, and pontics: The charges below include the cost of 
predominantly base metal alloy. Patient may be charged an additional amount, based on the type of material 
the dentist uses for patient’s restoration. Patient may be charged: 
• No more than $80.00 per tooth for any noble metal alloys 
• No more than $130.00 per tooth for any high noble metal alloys, titanium or titanium alloys 
• No more than $100.00 per tooth for any porcelain fused to metal (only on molar teeth) 
• No more than $100.00 per tooth if an indirectly fabricated (“cast”) post and core is made of high noble 
metal alloy 
• Porcelain/ceramic substrate crowns on molar teeth are not covered. 
If patient’s dentist offers same day in-office CAD/CAM (ceramic) services, they may charge an additional fee 
of no more than $150.00 per tooth/unit for crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, post and cores, and veneers. 
Same day in-office CAD/ CAM (ceramic) services refer to dental restorations that are created and delivered 
in the dental office the same day using a digital impression and an in-office CAD/CAM milling machine.

Implant/abutment supported prosthetics – All charges for crowns and bridges (fixed partial dentures) are per 
unit (each replacement on a supporting implant(s) equals 1 unit). Coverage for replacement of crowns and 
bridges and implant supported dentures is limited to 1 every 5 years. 
For single crowns, retainer (“abutment”) crowns, and pontics: The charges below include the cost of 
predominantly base metal alloy. Patient may be charged an additional amount, based on the type of material 
the dentist uses for patient’s restoration. Patient may be charged: 
• No more than $80.00 per tooth for any noble metal alloys 
• No more than $130.00 per tooth for any high noble metal alloys, titanium or titanium alloys 
• No more than $100.00 per tooth for any porcelain fused to metal (only on molar teeth) 
• No more than $100.00 per tooth if an indirectly fabricated (“cast”) post and core is made of high noble 
metal alloy 
• Porcelain/ceramic substrate crowns on molar teeth are not covered. 
If patient’s dentist offers same day in-office CAD/CAM (ceramic) services, the dentist may charge an 
additional fee of no more than $150.00 per tooth/unit for crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, post and cores, and 
veneers. Same day in-office CAD/ CAM (ceramic) services refer to dental restorations that are created and 
delivered in the dental office the same day using a digital impression and an in-office CAD/CAM milling 
machine.

ii.
Business Associate obtains written assurances, prior to making any disclosure to a third party
that the third party will (a) hold the PHI confidentially; (b) used or disclose the PHI only as
required by law or for the purpose for which it was disclosed to the third party; and (c) notify
Business Associate of any other use or disclosure of PHI.

SERIAL 250052-RFP 
 
c. In accordance with 45 C.F.R. § 164.502(e)(1), if Business Associate’s subcontractor creates,

enter into a written agreement with such subcontractor that contains the same restrictions and 
conditions on the use and disclosure of PHI as contained in this Agreement. 
d. Business Associate may use and disclose de-identified health information, if (i) the use is disclosed 
to Maricopa County and permitted by Maricopa County in its sole discretion, (ii) that the de-
identification is in compliance with 45 C.F.R. § 164.502(d), and (iii) the de-identified health 
information meets the standard and implementation specifications for de-identification under 45 
C.F.R. § 164.514(a) and (b). Business Associate may perform data aggregation services as

claims, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, expenses, penalties, or obligations (including attorneys’ 
fees), which Maricopa County may incur due to a Breach caused by Business Associate or 
Business Associate’s subcontractors or agents.   
d. Business Associate will report in writing to Maricopa County within 48 hours of learning of any

Maricopa County all PHI that Business Associate and its subcontractors and agents maintain in

c.
If Business Associate believes that returning or destroying PHI at the termination of this Agreement
is infeasible, it will provide written notice to Maricopa County within 30 days from the termination of
this Agreement explaining its circumstances. Maricopa County will promptly respond wither it
agrees. If Maricopa County agrees, then Business Associate may keep the PHI and will extend all
protections, limitations, and restrictions of this Agreement to the PHI, and will limit the use and
disclosure of the PHI to only those circumstances that make return or destruction infeasible.
Business Associate will ensure the same protections and limitations are followed by its agents and
subcontractors. If Maricopa County does not agree that that return or destruction of PHI is
infeasible, Maricopa County will notify Business Associate, and Business Associate and its agents
