NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

This rule is authorized by Section 26-33a-104, which provides for data collection activities and rulemaking to carry out these activities.

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

The Office of Health Care Statistics has not received any written comments since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule. Only general inquires have been made and responded to by the Office. On 11/08/2016, the Health Data Committee (HDC) voted with unanimous consent to extend Rule R428-2.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

Rule R428-2 establishes the reporting standards which apply to data suppliers and the classification, control, use, and release of data received by the HDC pursuant to Section 26-33a. Continuation of Rule R428-2 will assure the data definitions, standards, security, and disclosure under the Health Data Authority Act are consistent across all data suppliers, data users, and public inquiries. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
