Rationale: The key concern about human subjects in health care research is that all subjects, irrespective of their age, are protected from the researcher getting access to their confidential information before disclosing health information to them. A signed authorization form for research is valid only for a specific research study, not for future projects. Authorization is not required when the researcher obtains appropriate documentation that an institutional review board or a privacy board has granted a waiver or alteration of authorization requirements. Authorization is also not required once information has been de-identified according to Privacy Rule standards.
