Email Security and Emailing PHI Can I use my non-Mednet email accounts such as Bruin Online (YourName@ucla.edu), Gmail, Yahoo, or others to send unsecure PHI?No. Emails between Mednet and non-Mednet email accounts such as Bruin Online (YourName@ucla.edu), Gmail, Yahoo, or others do not provide protections for PHI and other Restricted Information. These emails travel unencrypted across the Internet. Unencrypted emails can be stored on non-HIPAA-compliant systems, which could be a violation of HIPAA for UCLA. 2 | |
