SMPH Navigator has been updated in order to better support requests that include protected health information (PHI).

What’s changing

A new, separate secure Navigator option has been introduced for Research Applications request that include PHI (OnCore, eBinder, Participant Payments).

Submitting requests with PHI

Requests that include PHI must now be submitted through the secure Navigator.

• The secure site is clearly labeled and designed specifically for PHI submission
• If PHI is required, request forms will direct users to the appropriate secure location
• PHI should not be submitted through the standard Navigator
• PHI should only ever be submitted for the appropriate Research Applications requests (OnCore, eBinder, Participant Payments) that require it on the forms that clearly state that PHI submission is allowed.

Do users need to take action?
If a request requires PHI, guidance within the form will direct submission to the secure site.
ALL forms that allow PHI are labeled as such.
