See 78 Federal Regulation 5566-5702 of 25 January 2013 (with corrections at 78 Federal Regulation 32464 of 7 June 2013. Additional HIPAA rules regarding electronic transactions and code sets (45 C.F.R. § 162) are not addressed in this BAA and are not included in the term HIPAA Rules.

b. The BA shall use appropriate safeguards and comply with the DoD HIPAA Rules with respect to electronic PHI to prevent use or disclosure of PHI other than as provided for by this Agreement, the controlling MOU, or law.
c. The BA shall report to the covered entity any Breach of which it becomes aware and shall proceed with breach response steps required by paragraph 7 (Breach Response) of this BAA. With respect to electronic PHI, the BA shall also respond to any security incident of which it becomes aware in accordance with any information assurance provisions of the Understanding. If at any point the BA becomes aware that a security incident involves a breach, the BA shall immediately initiate breach response as required by paragraph 7 (Breach Response) of this
BAA.
d. In accordance with 45 C.F.R. §§ 164.502(e)(1)(ii)) and 164.308(b)(2), respectively, as applicable, the BA shall ensure that any entities that create, receive, maintain, or transmit PHI on behalf of the BA agree to the same restrictions, conditions, and requirements that apply to the BA with respect to such PHI.

f. The BA shall make any amendment(s) to PHI in a designated record set as directed or agreed to by the covered entity pursuant to 45 C.F.R. § 164.526, or take other measures as necessary to satisfy covered entity’s obligations under 45 C.F.R. § 164.526.
g. The BA shall maintain and make available the information required to provide an accounting of disclosures to the covered entity or an individual as necessary to satisfy the covered entity’s obligations under 45 C.F.R. § 164.528.
h. To the extent the BA is to carry out one or more of the covered entity’s obligation(s) under the HIPAA privacy rule, the BA shall comply with the requirements of HIPAA privacy rule that apply to the covered entity in the performance of such obligation(s).
i. The BA shall make its internal practices, books, and records available to the Secretary and the covered entity for purposes of audit and in determining compliance with the HIPAA Rules.
4. Permitted Uses and Disclosures by BA:
a. The BA may only use or disclose PHI as necessary to perform the services set forth in the Understanding or as required by law. The BA is not permitted to de-identify PHI under DoD HIPAA issuances or the corresponding 45 C.F.R. § 164.514(a) through (c), nor is it permitted to use or disclose de-identified PHI except as provided by the Understanding or directed by the covered entity.
b. The BA agrees to use, disclose, and request PHI only in accordance with the HIPAA privacy rule “minimum necessary” standard and corresponding DHA policies and procedures as stated in the DoD HIPAA issuances.
c. The BA shall not use or disclose PHI in a manner that would violate the DoD HIPAA issuances or HIPAA privacy rules if done by the covered entity, except uses and disclosures for the BA’s own management and administration and legal responsibilities or for data aggregation services as set forth in the following three paragraphs:
(1) Except as otherwise limited in the understanding, the BA may use PHI for the proper management and administration of the BA or to carry out the legal responsibilities of the BA. The foregoing authority to use PHI does not apply to disclosure of PHI, which is covered in the next paragraph.
(2) Except as otherwise limited in the Understanding, the BA may disclose PHI for the proper management and administration of the BA or to carry out the legal responsibilities of the BA, provided that disclosures are required by law, or the BA obtains reasonable assurances from the person to whom the PHI is disclosed that it will remain confidential and used or further disclosed only as required by law or for the purposes for which it was disclosed to the person, and the person notifies the BA of any instances of which it is aware in which the confidentiality of the information has been breached.
(3) Except as otherwise limited in the Understanding, the BA may use PHI to provide Data Aggregation services relating to the covered entity’s health care operations.
5. Provisions for Covered Entity to Inform BA of Privacy Practices and Restrictions:
a. The covered entity shall provide the BA with the notice of privacy practices that the covered entity produces in accordance with 45 C.F.R.§ 164.520 and the corresponding provision of the DoD HIPAA issuances (DoDM 6025.18).
b. The covered entity shall notify the BA of any changes in, or revocation of, the permission by an Individual to use or disclose his or her PHI, to the extent that such changes affect the BA’s use or disclosure of PHI.
c. The covered entity shall notify the BA of any restriction on the use or disclosure of PHI that the covered entity has agreed to or is required to abide by under 45 C.F.R. § 164.522, to the extent that such changes may affect the BA’s use or disclosure of PHI.
6. Permissible Requests by Covered Entity. The covered entity shall not request the BA to use or disclose PHI in any manner that would not be permissible under the HIPAA privacy rule or any applicable Government regulations (including without limitation, DoD HIPAA issuances) if done by the covered entity, except for providing Data Aggregation services to the covered entity and for management and administrative activities of the BA as otherwise permitted by this BAA.
7. Breach Response:
a. General. Breach Response is designed to satisfy the DoD Privacy Act issuances and the HIPAA Breach Rule as implemented by the DoD HIPAA issuances. In general, the BA shall report the breach to the covered entity, assess the breach incident, notify affected individuals, and take mitigating actions, as applicable.
Because DoD defines “Breach” to include possible (suspected) as well as actual (confirmed) breaches, the BA shall implement these breach response requirements immediately upon the BA’s discovery of a possible breach. The following provisions set forth the BA’s Privacy Act and HIPAA breach response requirements for all breaches, including but not limited to HHS breaches (defined below). In the event of a breach of PII or PHI held by the BA, the BA shall follow the breach response requirements set forth under paragraphs 7, 8, and 9 of this BAA, which are designed to satisfy both the Privacy Act and HIPAA, as applicable.
(1) If a breach involves PII without PHI, then the BA shall comply with DoD Privacy Act issuance breach response requirements only.
(2) If a breach involves PHI (a subset of PII), then the BA shall comply with both Privacy Act and HIPAA breach response requirements.
(3) If a breach involves PHI, it may or may not constitute an HHS Breach. If a breach is not an HHS Breach, then the BA has no HIPAA breach response obligations. In such cases, the BA must still comply with breach response requirements under the DoD Privacy Act issuances.
b. HHS Breach. If the DHA Privacy Office determines that a breach is an HHS Breach, then the BA shall comply with both the HIPAA Breach Rule and DoD Privacy Act issuances, as directed by the DHA Privacy Office, regardless of where the breach occurs.
c. Non-HHS Breach. If the DHA Privacy Office determines that the breach does not constitute an HHS Breach, then the BA shall comply with DoD Privacy Act issuances, as directed by the applicable Service-Level Privacy Office.
d. Service-Level Privacy Office Point of Contact (POC). Brian Martin, who may be reached at Comm: 904-542-3559, DSN: 312-942-3559, or via E-mail: brian.k.martin4.civ@mail.mil, or usn.ncr.bumedfchava.list.bumed-pii-rpt@mail.mil.

NAVAL AIR STATION JACKSONVILLE FL 32212
8. Breach Reporting Provisions:
a. The BA shall report the breach within 1 business day of discovery to the US Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US-CERT) and within 24 hours of discovery to the DHA Privacy Office and the other Parties set forth below. The BA is deemed to have discovered a breach as of the time a breach (suspected or confirmed) is known, or by exercising reasonable diligence would have been known, to any person (other than the person committing it) who is an employee, officer, or other agent of the BA.
b. The BA shall submit the US-CERT report using the online form at https://forms.us-cert.gov/report. Before submission to US-CERT, the BA shall save a copy of the on-line report. After submission, the BA shall record the US-CERT Reporting Number. Although only limited information about the breach may be available as of the 1 hour deadline for submission, the BA shall submit the US-CERT report by the deadline. The BA shall e-mail updated information as it is obtained, following the instructions at: http://www.us-cert.gov/pgp/email.html. The BA shall provide a copy of the initial or updated US-CERT report to the DHA Privacy Office and the applicable Service-Level Privacy Office, if requested by either.
BA questions about US-CERT reporting shall be directed to the DHA or Service-Level Privacy Office, not the US- CERT office.
c. The BA report due within 24 hours shall be submitted by completing the New Breach Reporting Form DD 2959 at the Breach Response page on the DHA Privacy Office web site and emailing that form to, as applicable, the DHA Privacy Office, the Service-Level Privacy Office, the Contracting Officer (CO) and Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) (if the Understanding is not a contract, delete these references to the CO and COR), and the BA’s DoD POC unless the POC specifies another addressee for breach reporting.
Encryption is not required, because Breach Report Forms should not contain PII or PHI. The email address for notices to the DHA Privacy Office is provided at the Privacy Office web site breach response page. If electronic mail is not available, telephone notification is also acceptable, but all notifications and reports delivered telephonically must be confirmed by email as soon as technically feasible.
d. If multiple beneficiaries are affected by a single event or related set of events, then a single reportable breach may be deemed to have occurred, depending on the circumstances. The BA shall inform the DHA Privacy Office as soon as possible if it believes that “single event” breach response is appropriate; the DHA Privacy
Office will determine how the BA shall proceed and, if appropriate, consolidate separately reported breaches for purposes of BA report updates, beneficiary notification, and mitigation.
e. When a Breach Report Form initially submitted is incomplete or incorrect due to unavailable information, or when significant developments require an update, the BA shall submit a revised form or forms, stating the updated status and previous report date(s) and showing any revisions or additions in red text. Examples of updated information the BA shall report include, but are not limited to:
(1) Confirmation on the exact data elements involved.
(2) Root cause of the incident.
(3) Any mitigation actions to include, sanctions, training, incident containment, follow-up, etc. The BA shall submit these report updates promptly after the new information becomes available. Prompt reporting of updates is required to allow the DHA Privacy Office to make timely final determinations on any subsequent notifications or reports. The BA shall provide updates to the same Parties as required for the initial Breach Reporting Form. The BA is responsible for reporting all information needed by the DHA Privacy Office to make timely and accurate determinations on reports to HHS as required by the HHS Breach Rule and reports to the Defense Privacy and Civil Liberties Office as required by DoD Privacy Act issuances.
f. In the event the BA is uncertain on how to apply the above requirements, the BA shall consult with the DHA privacy office or service-level privacy office when determinations on applying the above requirements are needed.
9. Breach - Individual Notification Provisions:
a. Determine if Notification is Required. If the DHA Privacy Office determines that individual notification is required, the BA shall provide written notification to individuals affected by the breach as soon as possible, but no later than 60 working days after the breach is discovered and the identities of the individuals ascertained. The 60-day period begins when the BA is able to determine the identities (including addresses) of the individuals whose records were impacted.
b. Draft Proposed Notification. The BA’s proposed notification to be issued to the affected individuals shall be submitted to the Parties to which reports are submitted under paragraph 7 (breach response) for their review and for approval by the DHA Privacy Office. Upon request, the BA shall provide the DHA Privacy Office with the final text of the notification letter sent to the affected individuals. If different groups of affected individuals receive different notification letters, then the BA shall provide the text of the letter for each group. PII shall not be included with the text of the letter(s) provided. Copies of further correspondence with affected individuals need not be provided unless requested by the Privacy Office. The BA’s notification to the individuals, at a minimum, shall include the following:
(1) Identify PII Lost. The individual(s) must be advised of what specific data was involved. It is insufficient to simply state that PII has been lost. Where names, Social Security Numbers (SSNs) or truncated SSNs, and Dates of Birth are involved, it is critical to advise the individual that these data elements potentially have been breached.
(2) Inform. The affected individual(s) must be informed of the facts and circumstances surrounding the breach. The description should be sufficiently detailed so that the individual clearly understands how the breach occurred.
(3) Protective Actions. The affected individual(s) must be informed of what protective actions the BA is taking or the individual can take to mitigate against potential future harm. The notice must refer the individual to the current Federal Trade Commission (FTC) web site pages on identity theft and the FTC’s Identity Theft Hotline:
Toll Free: 1-877-ID-THEFT (438-4338), TTY: 1-866-653-4261.
(4) Credit Monitoring. The individual(s) must also be informed of any mitigating support services (e.g., 1 year of free credit monitoring, identification of fraud expense coverage for affected individuals, provision of credit freezes, etc.) that the BA may offer affected individuals, the process to follow to obtain those services, the period of time the services will be made available, and contact information (including a phone number, either direct or toll-free, e-mail address and postal address) for obtaining more information.
(5) Labeling. BAs shall ensure any envelope containing written notifications to affected individuals are clearly labeled to alert the recipient to the importance of its contents (e.g., “Data Breach Information Enclosed”) and that the envelope is marked with the identity of the BA or subcontractor organization that suffered the breach. The letter must also include contact information for a designated POC to include, phone number, email address, and postal address.
c. Notification within 60 Days. If the BA determines that it cannot readily identify, or will be unable to reach, some affected individuals within the 60-day period after discovering the breach, the BA shall so indicate in the initial or updated Breach Report Form. Within the 10-day period, the BA shall provide the approved notification to those individuals who can be reached. Other individuals must be notified within 60 days after identities and addresses are ascertained. The BA shall consult with the DHA Privacy Office, which will determine which media notice is most likely to reach the population not otherwise identified or reached. The BA shall issue a generalized media notice(s) to that population in accordance with Privacy Office approval.
d. Costs. The BA shall, at no cost to the government, bear any costs associated with a breach of PII or PHI that the BA has caused or is otherwise responsible for addressing.
e. Security Incident versus Breach. Breaches are not to be confused with security incidents (often referred to as cyber security incidents when electronic information is involved), which may or may not involve a breach of PII or PHI. In the event of a security incident not involving a PII or PHI breach, the BA shall follow applicable DoD Information Assurance requirements under its Understanding. If at any point the BA finds that a cyber security incident involves a PII or PHI breach (suspected or confirmed), the BA shall immediately initiate the breach response procedures set forth herein. The BA shall also continue to follow any required cyber security incident response procedures to the extent needed to address security issues, as determined by DoD/DHA.
10. Termination:
a. Termination. Noncompliance by the BA (or any of its staff, agents, or subcontractors) with any requirements in this BAA may subject the BA to termination under any applicable default or other termination provision of the Understanding.
b. Effect of Termination.
(1) If the Understanding has records management requirements, the BA shall handle such records in accordance with the records management requirements. If the Understanding does not have records management requirements, the records should be handled in accordance with subparagraphs (2) and (3) below. If the Understanding has provisions for transfer of records and PII or PHI to a successor BA or if DHA gives directions for such transfer, the BA shall handle such records and information in accordance with such Understanding provisions or DHA direction.
(2) If the Understanding does not have records management requirements, except as provided in the following paragraph (3), upon termination of the Understanding, for any reason, the BA shall return or destroy all PHI received from the covered entity, or created or received by the BA on behalf of the covered entity that the BA still maintains in any form. This provision shall apply to PHI that is in the possession of subcontractors or agents of the BA. The BA shall retain no copies of the PHI.
(3) If the Understanding does not have records management provisions and the BA determines that returning or destroying the PHI is infeasible, the BA shall provide to the covered entity notification of the conditions that make return or destruction infeasible. Upon mutual agreement of the covered entity and the BA that return or destruction of PHI is infeasible, the BA shall extend the protections of the Understanding to such PHI and limit further uses and disclosures of such PHI to those purposes that make the return or destruction infeasible, for so long as the BA maintains such PHI.
11. Miscellaneous:
a. Survival. The obligations of BA under the “Effect of Termination” provision of this BAA shall survive the termination of the Understanding.
b. Interpretation. Any ambiguity in the Understanding shall be resolved in favor of a meaning that permits the covered entity and the BA to comply with HIPAA and the DoD HIPAA Rules.

CONTRACTOR UNCLASSIFIED ACCESS TO FEDERALLY CONTROLLED FACILITIES, SENSITIVE
INFORMATION, INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY (IT) SYSTEMS OR PROTECTED HEALTH
INFORMATION (JAN 2017)
Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD)-12, requires government agencies to develop and implement Federal security standards for Federal employees and contractors. The Deputy Secretary of Defense Directive-Type Memorandum (DTM) 08-006 – “DoD Implementation of Homeland Security Presidential Directive – 12 (HSPD- 12)” dated November 26, 2008 (or its subsequent DoD instruction) directs implementation of HSPD-12. This clause is in accordance with HSPD-12 and its implementing directives.
Applicability
This text applies to contractor employees requiring physical access to any area of a federally controlled base, facility or activity and/or requiring access to a DoN or DoD computer/network/system to perform certain unclassified sensitive duties. This clause also applies to contractor employees who access Privacy Act and Protected Health Information, provide support associated with fiduciary duties, or perform duties that have been identified as National Security Position, as advised by the command security manager. It is the responsibility of the responsible security officer of the command/facility where the work is performed to ensure compliance.
Each contractor employee providing services at a Navy Command under this contract is required to obtain a Department of Defense Common Access Card (DoD CAC). Additionally, depending on the level of computer/network access, the contract employee will require a successful investigation as detailed below.
Access To Federal Facilities
Per HSPD-12 and implementing guidance, all contractor employees working at a federally controlled base, facility or activity under this clause will require a DoD CAC. When access to a base, facility or activity is required contractor employees shall in-process with the Command’s Security Manager upon arrival to the Command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual’s performance under the contract.
Access To Dod It Systems
In accordance with SECNAV M-5510.30, contractor employees who require access to DoN or DoD networks are categorized as IT-I, IT-II, or IT-III. The IT-II level, defined in detail in SECNAV M-5510.30, includes positions which require access to information protected under the Privacy Act, to include Protected Health Information (PHI).
All contractor employees under this contract who require access to Privacy Act protected information are therefore categorized no lower than IT-II. IT Levels are determined by the requiring activity’s Command Information Assurance Manager.
Contractor employees requiring privileged or IT-I level access, (when specified by the terms of the contract) require a Single Scope Background Investigation (SSBI) or T5 or T5R equivalent investigation , which is a higher level investigation than the National Agency Check with Law and Credit (NACLC)/T3/T3R described below. Due to the privileged system access, an investigation suitable for High Risk national security positions is required. Individuals who have access to system control, monitoring, or administration functions (e.g. system administrator, database administrator) require training and certification to Information Assurance Technical Level 1, and must be trained and certified on the Operating System or Computing Environment they are required to maintain.
Access to sensitive IT systems is contingent upon a favorably adjudicated background investigation. When access to IT systems is required for performance of the contractor employee’s duties, such employees shall in-process with the Navy Command’s Security Manager and Information Assurance Manager upon arrival to the Navy command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual’s performance under the contract.
Completion and approval of a System Authorization Access Request Navy (SAAR-N) form is required for all individuals accessing Navy Information Technology resources. The decision to authorize access to a government IT system/network is inherently governmental. The contractor supervisor is not authorized to sign the SAAR-N;
therefore, the government employee with knowledge of the system/network access required or the COR shall sign the SAAR-N as the “supervisor”.
The SAAR-N shall be forwarded to the Command’s Security Manager at least 30 days prior to the individual’s start date. Failure to provide the required documentation at least 30 days prior to the individual’s start date may result in delaying the individual’s start date.
When required to maintain access to required IT systems or networks, the contractor shall ensure that all employees requiring access complete annual Information Assurance (IA) training, and maintain a current requisite background investigation. The Contractor’s Security Representative shall contact the Command Security Manager for guidance when reinvestigations are required.
Interim Access
The Command's Security Manager may authorize issuance of a DoD CAC and interim access to a DoN or DoD unclassified computer/network upon a favorable review of the investigative questionnaire and advance favorable fingerprint results. When the results of the investigation are received and a favorable determination is not made, the contractor employee working on the contract under interim access will be denied access to the computer network and this denial will not relieve the contractor of his/her responsibility to perform.
Denial or Termination of Access
The potential consequences of any requirement under this clause including denial or termination of physical or system access in no way relieves the contractor from the requirement to execute performance under the contract within the timeframes specified in the contract. Contractors shall plan ahead in processing their employees and subcontractor employees. The contractor shall insert this clause in all subcontracts when the subcontractor is permitted to have unclassified access to a federally controlled facility, federally-controlled information system/network and/or to government information, meaning information not authorized for public release.
Contractor’s Security Representative
The contractor shall designate an employee to serve as the Contractor’s Security Representative. Within three work days after contract award, the contractor shall provide to the requiring activity’s Security Manager and the Contracting Officer, in writing, the name, title, address and phone number for the Contractor’s Security Representative. The Contractor’s Security Representative shall be the primary point of contact on any security matter. The Contractor’s Security Representative shall not be replaced or removed without prior notice to the Contracting Officer and Command Security Manager.
Background Investigation Requirements And Security Approval Process For Contractors Assigned To National Security Positions Or Performing Sensitive Duties
Navy security policy requires that all positions be given a sensitivity value based on level of risk factors to ensure appropriate protective measures are applied. Contractor employees under this contract are recognized as Non- Critical Sensitive [ADP/IT-II] positions when the contract scope of work require physical access to a federally controlled base, facility or activity and/or requiring access to a DoD computer/network, to perform unclassified sensitive duties. This designation is also applied to contractor employees who access Privacy Act and Protected Health Information (PHI), provide support associated with fiduciary duties, or perform duties that have been identified as National Security Positions. At a minimum, each contractor employee must be a US citizen and have a favorably completed NACLC or T3 or T3R equivalent investigation to obtain a favorable determination for assignment to a non-critical sensitive or IT-II position. The investigation consists of a standard NAC and a FBI fingerprint check plus law enforcement checks and credit check. Each contractor employee filling a non-critical sensitive or IT-II position is required to complete:
• SF-86 Questionnaire for National Security Positions (or equivalent OPM investigative product)
• Two FD-258 Applicant Fingerprint Cards (or an electronic fingerprint submission)
• Original Signed Release Statements
Failure to provide the required documentation at least 30 days prior to the individual’s start date shall result in delaying the individual’s start date. Background investigations shall be reinitiated as required to ensure investigations remain current (not older than 10 years) throughout the contract performance period. The Contractor’s Security Representative shall contact the Command Security Manager for guidance when reinvestigations are required.
Regardless of their duties or IT access requirements ALL contractor employees shall in-process with the Command’s Security Manager upon arrival to the command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual’s performance under the contract. Employees requiring IT access shall also check-in and check-out with the Navy Command’s Information Assurance Manager. Completion and approval of a System Authorization Access Request Navy (SAAR-N) form is required for all individuals accessing Navy Information Technology resources. The SAAR-N shall be forwarded to the Navy Command’s Security Manager at least 30 days prior to the individual’s start date. Failure to provide the required documentation at least 30 days prior to the individual’s start date shall result in delaying the individual’s start date.
The contractor shall ensure that each contract employee requiring access to IT systems or networks complete annual Information Assurance (IA) training, and maintain a current requisite background investigation. Contractor employees shall accurately complete the required investigative forms prior to submission to the Command Security Manager. The Command’s Security Manager will review the submitted documentation for completeness prior to submitting it to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM); Potential suitability or security issues identified may render the contractor employee ineligible for the assignment. An unfavorable determination is final (subject to SF- 86 appeal procedures) and such a determination does not relieve the contractor from meeting any contractual obligation under the contract. The Command’s Security Manager will forward the required forms to OPM for processing. Once the investigation is complete, the results will be forwarded by OPM to the DoD Central Adjudication Facility (CAF) for a determination.
If the contractor employee already possesses a current favorably adjudicated investigation, the contractor shall submit a Visit Authorization Request (VAR) via the Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS) or a hard copy VAR directly from the contractor’s Security Representative. Although the contractor will take JPAS “Owning” role over the contractor employee, the Command will take JPAS "Servicing" role over the contractor employee during the hiring process and for the duration of assignment under that contract. The contractor shall include the IT Position Category per SECNAV M-5510.30 for each employee designated on a VAR. The VAR requires annual renewal for the duration of the employee’s performance under the contract.
