CONTRACTOR shall make the following assurances to COUNTY: 1. CONTRACTOR agrees that it shall not use or disclose any patient’s PHI for any purpose not expressly stated in this Agreement. Further, CONTRACTOR shall not use or disclose PHI in any manner or context prohibited by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) and subsequent federal, state, and local regulations. If CONTRACTOR does use or disclose PHI for a purpose not expressly stated in this Agreement, it shall immediately cease the unauthorized use or disclosure, and shall notify COUNTY in writing of such use or disclosure. 56A11 ---PAGE BREAK--- 18 CONTRACTOR agrees to mitigate, to the extent practicable, any harmful effect known to it of a use or disclosure of PHI not allowed under this Agreement. 2. CONTRACTOR further agrees that any sub-contractors or other persons or entities not directly employed by CONTRACTOR who use or disclose PHI obtained from COUNTY, shall abide by terms of this clause of this Agreement. Any sub-contractor or other person or entity not directly employed by CONTRACTOR that has used or disclosed PHI without proper authorization (as defined in HIPAA and subsequent federal, state, and local regulations) shall be considered to have acted as an agent of CONTRACTOR, and have violated the terms of this Agreement. COUNTY may consider this use or disclosure a material breach of this Agreement. 3. By signing this Agreement, CONTRACTOR is assuring COUNTY it has met the minimum safeguards necessary to protect unauthorized use or disclosure of PHI to any person or entity not party to this Agreement. Such safeguards shall include the security safeguards outlined by the 1996 Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and subsequent federal regulation, including: physical access to PHI, technical access to PHI, and administrative policies and procedures addressing security of PHI. 4. Provider shall report to COUNTY any instance or circumstance in which PHI has been used or disclosed by an unauthorized person or entity, including accidental disclosure by CONTRACTOR. CONTRACTOR shall notify COUNTY in writing of any steps or procedural changes made to address the unauthorized use or disclosure. 5. Should COUNTY find PHI used or disclosed to CONTRACTOR to be inaccurate or incomplete, CONTRACTOR shall incorporate any amendments or corrections to the PHI at COUNTY’s request. 6. CONTRACTOR will make PHI available to the individual who is the subject of the PHI for amendment. Such requests by the individual for their PHI from CONTRACTOR will be made through County. CONTRACTOR will incorporate any amendments to PHI that have been made by COUNTY by virtue of the individual’s request for amendment. 7. CONTRACTOR will provide a timely accounting to the individual or to COUNTY, if requested by either, of the disclosures of an individual’s PHI. 8. Should CONTRACTOR make any material alterations to the PHI while the PHI is in its possession, CONTRACTOR shall notify COUNTY of such alterations so that COUNTY may inform the patient who is the subject of the PHI. 9. At the termination of this Agreement, CONTRACTOR shall return or destroy to the satisfaction of COUNTY any PHI held or maintained by CONTRACTOR and retain no copies of such information. If COUNTY and CONTRACTOR mutually agree that returning or destroying the PHI is not feasible or permitted under law, the PHI will remain protected after this agreement 56A12 ---PAGE BREAK--- 19 ends for as long as CONTRACTOR maintains the information. Further uses or disclosures of the PHI will be limited to those purposes that make the return or destruction infeasible. If COUNTY determines CONTRACTOR has violated any of the above assurances, covenants or terms, the CONTRACTOR has committed a material breach of this Agreement. COUNTY may then provide CONTRACTOR with an opportunity to cure the breach or may terminate this Agreement and may report the violations to the Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) or other federal or state entity for possible prosecution or sanctions. Both parties to this agreement agree that they will protect the integrity and confidentiality of any PHI being shared electronically. CONTRACTOR hereby gives COUNTY and the Department of Health and Human Services (or an agent acting on behalf of HHS) the express right to inspect any and all internal practices, books, and records relating to the use or disclosure of PHI by CONTRACTOR. If HHS suspects an unauthorized use or disclosure of PHI by CONTRACTOR, HHS is authorized to pursue an investigation into CONTRACTOR’s activities for the purposes of determining whether an unauthorized use or disclosure of PHI has taken place. CONTRACTOR may have policies and procedures relating to privacy and security in place prior to the commencement of this Agreement. If, after reasonable investigation, COUNTY concludes CONTRACTOR’s policies and procedures to be “adequate” protection of a patient’s privacy rights relating to PHI, CONTRATOR may elect to continue to use its own policies and procedures. The term “adequate” in this clause means CONTRACTOR’s policies and procedures meet the minimum privacy and security standards as set forth in COUNTY’s privacy and security policies and procedures. COUNTY, through the appropriate Department will: 1. provide CONTRACTOR with its Privacy Notice; 2. provide CONTRACTOR with any changes in, or revocation of, permission by a patient to use or disclose PHI, if such changes affect CONTRACTOR’s permitted or required uses or disclosures; and 3. notify CONTRACTOR of any restriction to the use or disclosure of PHI to which the COUNTY has agreed. Implement administrative, physical, and technical safeguards that reasonably and appropriately protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of the electronic protected health information (ePHI) that it creates, receives, maintains, or transmits on behalf of Cortland County. Ensure that any agent, including a subcontractor, to whom Contractor provides ePHI agrees to implement reasonable and appropriate safeguards to protect this information. 56A13 ---PAGE BREAK--- 20 Report to Security Officer of Cortland County any security incidents of which it becomes aware. (A security incident is defined as the attempted or successful unauthorized access, use, disclosure, modification, or destruction of information or interference with system operations in an information system.) 56A14 ---PAGE BREAK--- 21 APPENDIX A STANDARD CLAUSES FOR NEW YORK STATE CONTRACTS PLEASE RETAIN THIS DOCUMENT FOR FUTURE REFERENCE. 56A15 ---PAGE BREAK--- 22 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.

Contractor further affirms that, at the time Contractor submitted its bid, an authorized and responsible person executed and delivered to the State a non-collusive bidding certification on Contractor's behalf. 8. INTERNATIONAL BOYCOTT PROHIBITION.
