DEFINITIONS
Aggregate Data is data that has been gathered, processed, and expressed in a summary or report
form for reporting purposes such as making comparisons, predicting trends or other statistical
analyses. Aggregate data is collected from multiple sources and/or measures, variables, or
individual human subjects. Since aggregate data is the consolidation of data from multiple
sources, it is typically not able to be traced back to a specific human subject.
Anonymous Data is unidentified (i.e., personally identifiable information was not collected, or if
collected, identifiers were not retained and cannot be retrieved) data that cannot be linked
directly or indirectly by anyone to their source(s).
Authorized user means a recipient's employees, agents, assigns, representatives, independent
contractors, or other persons or entities authorized by the data recipient to access, use, or
disclose information through this agreement.
Authorized user agreement means the confidentiality agreement a recipient requires each of its
Authorized Users to sign prior to gaining access to Public Health Information.
Breach of confidentiality means unauthorized access, use or disclosure of information received
under this agreement. Disclosure may be oral or written, in any form or medium.
Breach of security means an action (either intentional or unintentional) that bypasses security
controls or violates security policies, practices, or procedures.
Coded Data is when direct personal identifiers have been removed from the data and replaced
with words, letters, figures, symbols, or a combination of these (not derived from or related to
the personal information) for purposes of protecting the identity of the source(s). The original
identifiers are retained in such a way that they can be traced back to the source(s) by someone
with the code. A code is sometimes also referred to as a "key," "link," or "map."
DOH Contract GVL29770-0 Page 2 of 30
Confidential information means information that is protected from public disclosure by
law. There are many state and federal laws that make different kinds of information confidential.
In Washington State, the two most common are the Public Records Act RCW 42.56, and the
Healthcare Information Act, RCW 70.02.
Data storage means electronic media with information recorded on it, such as CDs/DVDs,
computers, and similar devices.
Data transmission means the process of transferring information across a network from a sender
(or source) to one or more destinations.
De-Identified Data is when all direct personal identifiers are permanently removed from the
data, no code or key exists to link the data to their original source(s), and the remaining
information cannot reasonably be used by anyone to identify the source(s).
Direct identifier Direct identifiers in research data or records include names; postal address
information ( other than town or city, state and zip code); telephone numbers, fax numbers, e-
mail addresses; social security numbers; medical record numbers; health plan beneficiary
numbers; account numbers; certificate/license numbers; vehicle identifiers and serial numbers,
including license plate numbers; device identifiers and serial numbers; web universal resource
locators ( URLs); internet protocol (IP) address numbers; biometric identifiers, including finger
and voice prints; and full face photographic images and any comparable images.
Disclosure means to permit access to or release,transfer,or other communication of confidential
information by any means including oral, written, or electronic means, to any party except the
party identified or the party that provided or created the record.
Encryption means the use of algorithms to encode data making it impossible to read without a
specific piece of information, which is commonly referred to as a "key". Depending on the type
of information shared, encryption may be required during data transmissions, and/or data
storage.
Health care information means any information, whether oral or recorded in any form or
medium, that identifies or can readily be associated with the identity of a patient and directly
relates to the patient's health care...." RCW 70.02.010(7)
Health information is any information that pertains to health behaviors, human exposure to
environmental contaminants, health status, and health care. Health information includes health
care information as defined by RCW 70.02.010 and health related data as defined in RCW
43.70.050.
Health Information Exchange (HIE) means the statewide hub that provides technical services to
support the secure exchange of health information between HIE participants.
DOH Contract GVL29770-0 Page 3 of 30
Human research review is the process used by institutions that conduct human subject research
to ensure that:
• the rights and welfare of human subjects are adequately protected;
• the risks to human subjects are minimized, are not unreasonable, and are outweighed by
the potential benefits to them or by the knowledge gained; and
• the proposed study design and methods are adequate and appropriate in light of the
stated research objectives.
Research that involves human subjects or their identifiable personal records should be reviewed
and approved by an institutional review board (IRB) per requirements in federal and state laws
and regulations and state agency policies.
Human subjects research/human subject means a living individual about whom an investigator
(whether professional or student) conducting research obtains (1) data through intervention or
interaction with the individual, or (2) identifiable private information.
Identifiable data or records contains information that reveals or can likely associate the identity
of the person or persons to whom the data or records pertain. Research data or records with
direct identifiers removed, but which retain indirect identifiers, are still considered identifiable.
Indirect identifiers are indirect identifiers in research data or records that include all geographic
identifiers smaller than a state , including street address, city, county, precinct, Zip code, and
their equivalent postal codes, except for the initial three digits of a ZIP code; all elements of dates
( except year ) for dates directly related to an individual, including birth date, admission date,
discharge date, date of death; and all ages over 89 and all elements of dates ( including year)
indicative of such age, except that such age and elements may be aggregated into a single
category of age 90 or older.
Limited dataset means a data file that includes potentially identifiable information. A limited
dataset does not contain direct identifiers.
Normal business hours are state business hours Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00
p.m. except state holidays.
Public Health Authority is an agency or authority of the United States government, a State, a
territory, a political subdivision of a State or territory, or Indian tribe that is responsible for public
health matters as part of its official mandate, as well as a person or entity acting under a grant of
authority from, or under a contract with, a public health agency. See 45 CFR 164.501.
Public Health Surveillance Activities are limited to activities conducted, supported, requested,

importance, including trends, signals, risk factors, patterns of diseases, or increases in
injuries from consumer products.
• Provide timely situational awareness and priority setting during the course of an event or
crisis that threatens public health.
Potentially identifiable information means information that includes indirect identifiers which
may permit linking an individual to that person's health care information. Examples of potentially
identifiable information include:
• birth dates;
• admission, treatment, or diagnosis dates;
• healthcare facility codes;
• other data elements that may identify an individual.These vary depending on factors such
as the geographical location and the rarity of a person's health condition, age, or other
characteristic.
Prescription monitoring program direct identifies means direct identifies in the Prescription
Monitoring Program may include the following: patient's first name; middle name; last name;
social security number; control or medical record number; zip code plus four digits; dates that

EXHIBIT I
1. PURPOSE AND JUSTIFICATION FOR SHARING THE DATA
Provide a detailed description of the purpose and justification for sharing the data, including
specifics on how the data will be used.
The effects of substance, opioid, and stimulant use pose a public health challenge that
touches the lives of every Washingtonian. Communities across the state have demanded a
coordinated response to the persistent and evolving epidemic of drug-related harms. This
coordination includes access to timely, standardized, coordinated data products that support
the establishment of response efforts to address the impacts of this epidemic on our
communities. The restricted access Opioid and Drug Use Data Dashboard for local, Tribal and
State public health partners fulfills this goal by consolidating historically isolated DOH data
products into a single data dashboard to guide the state and local overdose response efforts.
This dashboard is designed collaboratively with local health partners to support their opioid
and drug use data needs. Without this dashboard, most local and Tribal partners will lose the
ability to monitor the impacts of substance, opioid, and stimulant use in their communities
and their ability to respond to these impacts will be diminished.
The dashboard provides aggregated overdose and use data at the county, region, and state
level with some granularity by broad demographic groups such as age groups, race and
ethnicity and sex at birth. While this dashboard does not contain any personal health
information, it does contain aggregated demographic data by county that could be used to
triangulate the identity of individuals. This dashboard also contains aggregated Prescription
Monitoring Program data to demonstrate the number of people receiving opioid prescriptions
to inform surveillance. For that reason, access to this dashboard is restricted to staff from
local and Tribal entities and state opioid and overdose response plan and opioid settlement
partners, which are the Governor's Office, OFM, Attorney General's Office, DOH, HCA, DSHS,
L&I, UW and DCYF. Local staff may consist of Medical Program Director's (MPD's) that are
prescribed duties by the Department of Health under RCW 18.71.212 and WAC 246-976-920.
The dashboard is protected by a security group managed by the agency IT team.
Only approved users can access the dashboard after they sign the DSA and agree to follow
the DOH guidelines for reporting small numbers when presenting any information from the
dashboard to their constituents to inform the local and Tribal opioid and overdose response
efforts. Additionally, at the point of entry to the dashboard, approved users are required to
acknowledge a confidentiality disclaimer and agreement and there is user review process
(including semi-annual account reviews) for anyone requesting access to the dashboard. The
local and Tribal authorities need to refer to the data on the dashboard to identify the areas
of the state with high or low risk or areas with inadequate service coverage, and they may
need to communicate this to their constituents as part of their response efforts. When they
communicate any information from the dashboard with their constituents for any response
effort they may be involved, they agree to follow the state small numbers guidelines.
Additionally,when partners with access to the dashboard "download"data, it is de-identified,
DOH Contract GVL29770-0 Page 12 of 30
EXHIBIT I
aggregate data that the dashboard displays, not line-level data. As stated in this agreement,
they must destroy the data after the period of performance, only use the data as permitted
in this agreement, and must use the DOH and dataset-specific small numbers policy (in
Appendix D) when reporting data. Data may be shared publicly in adherence with DOH small
numbers guidelines and RCW 70.168.090 and will not identify any health information at the
patient, provider, or facility level.
Is the purpose of this agreement for human subjects research that requires Washington State
Institutional Review Board (WSIRB) approval?
❑ Yes ❑ No
If yes, has a WSIRB review and approval been received? If yes, please provide copy of approval. If
No, attach exception letter.
❑ Yes ❑ No
2. PERIOD OF PERFORMANCE
This Exhibit shall have the same period of performance as the Agreement unless otherwise noted
below:
Exhibit shall be effective from the date the agreement is signed by both parties until August
31, 2024.
3. DESCRIPTION OF DATA

APPENDIX B
DATA SECURITY REQUIREMENTS
Protection of Data
The storage of Category 3 and 4 information outside of the State Governmental Network requires
organizations to ensure that encryption is selected and applied using industry standard
algorithms validated by the NIST Cryptographic Algorithm Validation Program. Encryption must
be applied in such a way that it renders data unusable to anyone but authorized personnel, and
the confidential process, encryption key or other means to decipher the information is protected
from unauthorized access. All manipulations or transmissions of data within the organization's
network must be done securely.
The Information Recipient agrees to store information received under this Agreement (the data)
within the United States on one or more of the following media, and to protect it as described
below:
A. Passwords
1. Passwords must always be encrypted. When stored outside of the authentication
mechanism, passwords must be in a secured environment that is separate from the data
and protected in the same manner as the data. For example, passwords stored on mobile
devices or portable storage devices must be protected as described under section F. Data
storage on mobile devices or portable storage media.
2. Complex Passwords are:
• At least 8 characters in length.
• Contain at least three of the following character classes: uppercase letters, lowercase
letters, numerals, special characters.
• Do not contain the user's name, user ID or any form of their full name.
• Do not consist of a single complete dictionary word but can include a passphrase.
• Do not consist of personal information (e.g., birthdates, pets' names, addresses,
etc.).

DATA SECURITY REQUIREMENTS
cards. Accounts must lock after 5 unsuccessful access attempts and remain locked for at
least 15 minutes, or require administrator reset.
C. Network server and storage area networks (SAN)
1. Access to the data is restricted to authorized users through the use of access control lists
which will grant access only after the authorized user has authenticated to the network.
2. Authentication must occur using a unique user ID and Complex Password, or other
authentication mechanisms which provide equal or greater security, such as biometrics
or smart cards. Accounts must lock after 5 unsuccessful access attempts, and remain
locked for at least 15 minutes, or require administrator reset.
3. The data is located in a secured computer area, which is accessible only by authorized
personnel with access controlled through use of a key, card key, or comparable
mechanism.
4. If the servers or storage area networks are not located in a secured computer area or if
the data is classified as Confidential or Restricted it must be encrypted as described under
F. Data storage on mobile devices or portable storage media.
D. Optical discs (CDs or DVDs)
1. Optical discs containing the data must be encrypted as described under F. Data storage
on mobile devices or portable storage media.
2. When not in use forthe purpose of this Agreement, such discs must be locked in a drawer,
cabinet, or other physically secured container to which only authorized users have the
key, combination or mechanism required to access the contents of the container.
E. Access over the Internet or the State Governmental Network (SGN).
1. When the data is transmitted between DOH and the Information Recipient, access is
controlled by the DOH, who will issue authentication credentials.
2. Information Recipient will notify DOH immediately whenever:
a. An authorized person in possession of such credentials is terminated or otherwise
leaves the employ of the Information Recipient;
b. Whenever a person's duties change such that the person no longer requires access to
perform work for this Contract.
3. The data must not be transferred or accessed over the Internet by the Information
Recipient in any other manner unless specifically authorized within the terms of the
Agreement.
a. If authorized, the data must be encrypted during transmissions using a key length of
at least 128 bits. Industry standard mechanisms and algorithms, such as those
validated by the National Institute of Standards and Technology(NIST) are required.
DOH Contract GVL29770-0 Page 21 of 30
APPENDIX B
DATA SECURITY REQUIREMENTS
b. Authentication must occur using a unique user ID and Complex Password (of at least
10 characters). When the data is classified as Confidential or Restricted,
authentication requires secure encryption protocols and multi-factor authentication
mechanisms, such as hardware or software tokens, smart cards, digital certificates, or
biometrics.
c. Accounts must lock after 5 unsuccessful access attempts, and remain locked for at
least 15 minutes, or require administrator reset.
F. Data storage on mobile devices or portable storage media

portable hard disks.
3. The data must not be stored by the Information Recipient on mobile devices or portable
storage media unless specifically authorized within the terms of this Agreement. If so
authorized:
a. The devices/media must be encrypted with a key length of at least 128 bits, using
industry standard mechanisms validated by the National Institute of Standards and
Technologies (NIST).
• Encryption keys must be stored in a secured environment that is separate
from the data and protected in the same manner as the data.
a. Access to the devices/media is controlled with a user ID and a Complex Password
(of at least 6 characters), or a stronger authentication method such as
biometrics.
b. The devices/media must be set to automatically wipe or be rendered unusable
after no more than 10 failed access attempts.
c. The devices/media must be locked whenever they are left unattended and set to
lock automatically after an inactivity activity period of 3 minutes or less.
d. The data must not be stored in the Cloud. This includes backups.
e. The devices/ media must be physically protected by:
• Storing them in a secured and locked environment when not in use;
• Using check-in/check-out procedures when they are shared; and
• Taking frequent inventories.
4. When passwords and/or encryption keys are stored on mobile devices or portable storage
media they must be encrypted and protected as described in this section.
G. Backup Media
The data may be backed up as part of Information Recipient's normal backup process
provided that the process includes secure storage and transport, and the data is encrypted
as described under F. Data storage on mobile devices or portable storage media.

storing the records in a secure area which is only accessible to authorized personnel. When
not in use,such records are stored in a locked container,such as a file cabinet, locking drawer,
or safe, to which only authorized persons have access.
I. Data Segregation
1. The data must be segregated or otherwise distinguishable from all other data. This is to
ensure that when no longer needed by the Information Recipient, all the data can be
identified for return or destruction. It also aids in determining whether the data has or
may have been compromised in the event of a security breach.
2. When it is not feasible or practical to segregate the data from other data, then all
commingled data is protected as described in this Exhibit.

APPENDIX D
DOH SMALL NUMBERS GUIDELINES
• Aggregate data so that the need for suppression is minimal. Suppress all non-zero
counts which are less than ten.
• Suppress rates or proportions derived from those suppressed counts.
• Assure that suppressed cells cannot be recalculated through subtraction, by using sec-
ondary suppression as necessary. Survey data from surveys in which 80%or more of the
eligible population is surveyed should be treated as non-survey data.
• When a survey includes less than 80% of the eligible population, and the respondents
are unequally weighted, so that cell sample sizes cannot be directly calculated from the
weighted survey estimates, then there is no suppression requirement for the weighted
survey estimates.
• When a survey includes less than 80% of the eligible population, but the respondents
are equally weighted, then survey estimates based on fewer than 10 respondents
should be "top-coded" (estimates of less than 5% or greater than 95% should be pre-
sented as 0-5% or 95-100%).
ADDITIONAL DATASET SPECIFIC SMALL NUMBERS REQUIREMENTS
• When presenting any information from the dashboard publicly, follow the DOH guide-
lines for reporting small numbers.
o When possible, aggregate data so that no single number, "cell size," is less than
10.
o Suppress all non-zero counts less than 10, unless they are in a category labeled
"unknown."
o Suppress rates or proportions derived from those suppressed counts.
