Are there any guidelines that must be followed when using PHI externally for education purposes – national educational meetings or publications?Individuals should not use PHI for external educational meetings/presentations, case studies, articles, industry conferences/lectures, posters, fliers, or media purposes without first obtaining the patient’s written authorization allowing UCLA to use and disclose his/her PHI for the specific purpose. The signed authorization should be placed in the patient’s legal medical record maintained by the HIMS Department.
