11 Describe the purpose of the system.

Case Reporting for Acute Flaccid Myelitis

Describe the type of information the system will
collect, maintain (store), or share. (Subsequent
12
questions will identify if this information is PII and ask
about the specific data elements.)

The Acute Flaccid Myelitis case reporting form collects: patient
information, Signs and symptoms of the patient, polio
vaccination history, Neuroradiographic findings, details of MRI ,
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis, Electromyography (EMG),
Pathogen testing, Respiratory tract, stool, serum specimen
testing and collection.

Provide an overview of the system and describe the
13 information it will collect, maintain (store), or share,
either permanently or temporarily.

The Acute Flaccid Myelitis (AFM) case reporting form is used to
conduct surveillance for AFM. Data collected through this
system will be used to determine baseline rates of AFM in the
United States and to monitor trends in disease over time.
Additionally, laboratory data collected will help with
identification of possible etiologic agents for AFM. Clinical
information will be used to describe cases, and polio
vaccination information will be used to determine if any of the
cases could be associated with polio. AFM surveillance will also
help with monitoring status of the US with regards to polio
elimination status.

N/A
The process for notifying individuals of the use of their
personal information is established by the state/local health
departments. Patient's physician collects information and
works with the state/local health department to notify the
patient that the data are collected to help monitor the disease
and add to the information that can help identify possible
etiologies for this illness.

obtained.
Describe the process in place to resolve an
individual's concerns when they believe their PII has
29 been inappropriately obtained, used, or disclosed, or
that the PII is inaccurate. If no process exists, explain
why not.

CDC does not have a process in place for AFM Surveillance to
address this issue. Any concerns of this nature would be
handled at the State/Local Health Department. We receive the
data from the State/Local Health Department and do not have
direct access to the patients.

Describe the process in place for periodic reviews of
PII contained in the system to ensure the data's
30
integrity, availability, accuracy and relevancy. If no
processes are in place, explain why not.

The Epidemiology Branch in the Division of Viral Diseases
maintains a database with information on what data each
member has that may contain PII. Information on how the data
are stored is reviewed annually to ensure data are being kept
securely and that the information is accurate.

be addressed.
Describe the methods in place to allow those with
33 access to PII to only access the minimum amount of
information necessary to perform their job.

Only the minimum amount of PII needed to do our jobs are
included in the system. If additional PII is sent, that information
is blacked out or redacted on paper copies and not included in
any electronic databases.

Identify training and awareness provided to
personnel (system owners, managers, operators,
contractors and/or program managers) using the
34
system to make them aware of their responsibilities
for protecting the information being collected and
maintained.

Security and Privacy Awareness Training is conducted on an
annual basis to identify the responsibilities to protect PII.

Describe training system users receive (above and
35 beyond general security and privacy awareness
training).

The Epidemiology Branch in the Division of Viral Diseases also
has a policy available on our share drive about keeping PII
secure and the safeguards that need to be taken.

Scientific and Research Project Records Control Schedule,
Significant and or Secondary Research Records.

Describe the process and guidelines in place with
37 regard to the retention and destruction of PII. Cite
specific records retention schedules.

These records may be datasets, field records, and other
information necessary to understand a research project. They
may also be connected to other data through metadata,
indices, or other means. These records may include
background materials maintained by individual researchers
used to understand scientific advances, learn new techniques,
or to prepare for a new project.
Approved Records Control Schedule (N1-442-09-1, Item 2)
Authorized Disposition: Maintain at least eleven years, but no
longer than twenty years, after the retirement of the records
depending upon program need for scientific, legal, or business
reference.
Transfer to FRC is authorized in accordance with applicable
storage regulations of electronic records.

Describe, briefly but with specificity, how the PII will
38 be secured in the system using administrative,
technical, and physical controls.

PII will be secured both physically and electronically. Physical
surveillance forms will be stored in locked cabinets within
employee badge-secured facilities; electronic data will be
saved in folders restricted to non-users, within passwordprotected computer systems.
