HIPAA RequirementsHealth Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act of 1996
Ensures medical information is private and protected
Sets rules to limit who can view and receive health information
Auditory privacy often not possiblein HC group testing situations

stored on DD Form 2214 or equivalent
IH & Command retain surveys locally for 40 yrs
Available from IH or Safety officer
Individual PersonnelDocumentation of
personal noise exposure history in DOEHRS-IH
Permanently maintained in medical record

Enrollment Rosters for HCPWHO MUST BE ENROLLED IN HCP?
All personnel whose TWA is ≥ 85dBAAll personnel routinely exposed to potentially
hazardous noise when IH Noise Surveyis unavailable
WHO CREATES & MAINTAINS HCP ROSTERS? Command Safety
creates and maintains HCP Roster per IH Noise Survey recommendations
provides supporting MTF with total number of personnel on the HCP semi-annually

Patients with STS and PTS
OHC TECHNICIAN
• DOEHRS-HC generates remarks entry
• Patient signs test acknowledging reduced hearing levels (STS)
• Permanently placed in patient’s medical record
• OSHA & DoD require written notification of PTS
to patient & supervisor
• PTS data sent to local Safety Office who reports:military –-Navy Safety
Center civilians -- OSHA 300 log
AUDIOLOGIST or OCCUPATIONAL PHYSICIAN

“OSHA REPORTABLE” PATIENTS*
1. Permanent hearing loss2. Occupationally related3. STS ≥ 10dB at 2000, 3000 and 4000Hz4. Average thresholds > 25dB at
2000, 3000 and 4000Hz *civilians
Patients with STS & PTS cont….

Evaluation of HCP Effectiveness
Program effectiveness must be
evaluated continually to determine
WHERE and HOW improvements can be made
Top AnalysisMetrics
Compliance STS Rate TTS Rate PTS Rate
(audiologist responsible)
Good HCP compliance does not ensure
good employee hearing acuity

Audiology Workload Requirements for reporting workload
may vary between commands
CHCS/AHLTA used to capture information• patients seen, clinic site, provider (OHC Tech)• type of appointment/hearing test• symptoms, test procedures, disposition
OHC Technicians provided with MEPRS FBN-codes• reports medical surveillance workload
DOEHRS-HC captures daily workload information
