Retention of PHI if Return or Destruction is Infeasible Sample Clauses

The 'Retention of PHI if Return or Destruction is Infeasible' clause defines what happens to protected health information (PHI) when a party cannot return or destroy it at the end of a contract or relationship. In practice, this clause typically requires the party to continue safeguarding the PHI and limit its use or disclosure according to the original agreement, even after the main contract has ended. This ensures that sensitive health information remains protected when physical or technical limitations prevent its complete return or destruction, thereby maintaining compliance with privacy regulations and reducing the risk of unauthorized access.
Retention of PHI if Return or Destruction is Infeasible. If Business Associate believes that returning or destroying PHI at the termination of this Agreement is infeasible, it will provide written notice to Covered Entity within 30 days of the effective date of termination of this Agreement. Such notice will set forth the circumstances that Business Associate believes makes the return or destruction of PHI infeasible and the measures that Business Associate will take for assuring the continued confidentiality and security of the PHI. Covered Entity promptly will notify Business Associate of whether it agrees that the return or destruction of PHI is infeasible. If Covered Entity agrees that return or destruction of PHI is infeasible, Business Associate may keep the PHI but will extend all protections, limitations and restrictions of this Agreement to Business Associate’s Use or Disclosure of PHI retained after termination of this Agreement and will limit further Uses or Disclosures to those purposes that make the return or destruction of the PHI infeasible. Business Associate will also ensure that any such extended protections, limitations and restrictions apply to its subcontractors for whom return or destruction of PHI is determined by Covered Entity to be infeasible. If Covered Entity does not agree that the return or destruction of PHI from Business Associate or its subcontractors is infeasible, Covered Entity will provide Business Associate with written notice of its decision, and Business Associate and its subcontractors will proceed with the return or destruction of the PHI pursuant to the terms of this Section
