Are there protections against providers seeing information on clients not in their care?
• Yes, appropriate safeguards are in place to prevent this from occurring. CMBHS employs role-based security, meaning system users only have access to data approved for the role they are assigned within their provider’s organization. Such security protocols prevent the user from accessing data that has not been assigned to them within their own organization. Additionally, the design of CMBHS controls the access of data between organizations to that permitted by governing law and regulations such as 42 CFR for substance abuse clients.
