• If you are an electronic health network, prevent the disclosure of a patient's coded private health care information to a provider, business entity, other electronic health network, or health information exchange outside Illinois, unless the disclosure is for technical support, quality assurance, payment or health care operations, or to a specific covered entity with the consent of the patient or of the patient's parent, guardian, health care surrogate decision maker, or power of attorney.
• Develop and enable the technological capabilities to parse coded private health care information, let a health care provider manually segregate private health care information, let a patient request and consent to its exchange with a specific covered entity, and let a patient opt out of segregation.
• Do not notify an out-of-state provider, business entity, other electronic health network, or health information exchange that private health care information may have been segregated from a patient's electronic health record.
