Recordkeeping no longer requires participant addresses but does require “unique identifier information”. What are examples of this identifier?
A. Identifier information might be the last four digits of the participants social security number (never the full number, license number or credit card number), birth date OR address. Some organizations have a system that automatically generates a unique identifier number for a new learner. It is a way to track an individual participant that conceals the identity of the participant from office staff, other participants, or others. Only the Nurse Planner or his / her designee has the key to identify which Unique Identifier Code matches with each participant.
