All members of the CU Denver | Anschutz Medical Campus community with access to individually identifiable health information or that work in a University of Colorado Designated Health Care Component (APS 5055) need to be "hip to HIPAA" - the federal law that requires us to protect patient confidentiality. This includes research subjects.
