Best Practice Guides and other guidelines
Statutory Guidelines
The Office of the Privacy Commissioner has developed four statutory guidelines under the Health Records and Information Privacy Act 2002. The statutory guidelines are not a plain English guide to the HRIP Act. They are legally binding documents that define the scope of particular exemptions in the health privacy principles. They describe how the exemption applies and what you need to do in order to comply with the exemption. They are as important as the exemption itself. They relate to the:
- use or disclosure of health information for the management of health services (PDF, 274kb)
- use or disclosure of health information for training purposes (PDF, 272kb)
- use or disclosure of health information for research purposes (PDF, 343kb) (HREC form [word] [PDF]
- use or disclosure of health information from a third party (PDF, 267kb)
A Fact Sheet is available which explains the statutory guidelines in more detail.
