PIA REQUIRE INFORMATION

HHS Privacy Impact Assessment (PIA)

The PIA determines if Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is contained within a system, what kind of PII, what is done with that information, and how that information is protected. Systems with PII are subject to an extensive list of requirements based on privacy laws, regulations, and guidance. The HHS Privacy Act Officer may be contacted for issues related to Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) and the Privacy Act. Respective Operating Division (OPDIV) Privacy Contacts may be contacted for issues related to the Privacy Act. The Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) can be used as a resource for questions related to the administrative, technical, and physical controls of the system. Please note that answers to questions with an asterisk (*) will be submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and made publicly available in accordance with OMB Memorandum (M) 03-22.

Note: If a question or its response is not applicable, please answer “N/A” to that question where possible.
