A fully executed Participation Agreement and Business Associate Agreement (BAA) must be in place for a corporate account before any facility under that account may submit data to a registry. The Participation Agreement details the obligations of the NRDR and the obligations of the corporate account holder with respect to the NRDR, including the safeguarding of Protected Health Information, as mandated by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA).

The Participation Agreement and BAA must be signed and returned to the NRDR Administrator before your facility can submit data to a registry.

The Participation Agreement is displayed during the application process and may be signed online. Review the entire Participation Agreement carefully and, when finished, click the box next to the statement beginning with The undersigned Participant-signatory acknowledges… at the bottom of the page.
