Geography and Epidemiology of Health Data for the City of Camden: Creating a Neighborhood Health Indicator Database

CamConnect, a now-closed organization that was Camden's representative to NNIP for several years, shared this document with other partners as an example of a HIPAA compliant research plan. This data agreement led to the precursor of the advanced data system now maintained by the Camden Coalition of Healthcare Providers. 

The document includes:

• background on their original research
• the design of their initial study
• a list of the Protected Health Information (PHI) they obtained
• PHI Protection protocol
• research plan
• risks and benefits
• plans for monitoring subject safety
• procedures to maintain privacy and confidentiality
