Offshore resources on restricted accounts…

There are a lot of accounts that have offshore restrictions yet I see so many instances where offshore resources have access to the data or help support it. There is a global client restrictions list which lists which accounts have restrictions and by which level, but I rarely see it enforced. Even with the recent post about offshore resources supporting Medicare members, my understanding was Medicare had to remain onshore. Am I off on this? I don’t understand why this isn’t a bigger issue.

Dude.... It was so bad in my department. I notified compliance. My vp denied it so I sent screenshots of the offshore user literally querying with phi 3 values hardcoded in their query

I ended up quitting and escalating. No one got in trouble but I did succeed in getting an entire department reassigned to a different project

It’s Medicaid that they can’t have offshore access to. They can have access to Medicare patients.

Email your senator about offshore having access to PHI.

In a system starts with big O, all data is accessible by offshore regardless of restrictions
