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:

Subsections 26-1-30(2)(d), (e), (f), (g), (p), and (w) authorize the Department of Health to collect data, and to detect, monitor, and disseminate information about diseases and health conditions important to public health. Sections 26-3-5 and 26-3-6 provide that the Department of Health may establish uniform standards for the management of health information to avoid duplication of data and to coordinate health data activities within the state. This rule provides for uniform submission of data to the Department of Health through an electronic data interchange and provides for the confidential treatment of that data.

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

No written comment has been received since the last review of the rule. In June 2009, the Utah Health Data Committee reviewed the rule and requested its continuation.

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

This rule is necessary for consistent, cost-effective reporting of information critical to public health and should be continued. The Office of Health Care Statistics will use an electronic data interchange to collect data for the all payer database.
