**V.        Corrective Action Obligations**

iHealth agrees to the following:

**Conduct Risk Analysis**

	iHealth shall conduct an accurate and thorough assessment of the potential security risks and vulnerabilities to the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of iHealth’s electronic protected health information (ePHI) (“Risk Analysis”). The Risk Analysis shall incorporate all iHealth’s facilities and must include an evaluation of the risks to the security of ePHI in electronic equipment, information systems, devices and media, and applications controlled, administered or owned by iHealth, that contain, store, transmit, or receive ePHI.  The Risk Analysis shall also include an assessment of the risks to ePHI security in the physical environment.  Prior to conducting the Risk Analysis, iHealth shall develop a complete inventory of all of their facilities, categories of electronic equipment, information systems, devices and media, and applications that contain or store ePHI, which will then be incorporated into their Risk Analysis.
		Within forty-five (45) days of the Effective Date, iHealth shall provide to HHS a Statement of Work (SOW) for the Risk Analysis. Within thirty (30) days of its receipt of iHealth’s Risk Analysis SOW, if HHS identifies deficiencies in the Risk Analysis SOW, HHS shall provide iHealth with written technical assistance, as necessary, such as through suggested edits to the SOW, so that iHealth may revise its SOW accordingly. Within thirty (30) days of HHS providing such written technical assistance, if any, the Parties shall meet and confer in good faith to determine the deadline by which iHealth shall submit a revised SOW for HHS review. Within thirty (30) days of iHealth submitting any such revised SOW, the Parties shall meet and confer in good faith to determine the deadline by which HHS shall review the revised SOW and provide URMC with written technical assistance, if any. This submission and review process shall continue until HHS approves the SOW.
		iHealth shall provide the Risk Analysis, consistent with Section V.A.1., to HHS within sixty (60) days of HHS’s approval of the Risk Analysis SOW, as required by Section V.A.1., for HHS’s review. Within thirty (30) days of its receipt of iHealth’s Risk Analysis, HHS will inform iHealth whether it has any technical assistance to provide for the submitted Risk Analysis. Upon receiving any recommended changes to the Risk Analysis to confirm compliance with the Security Rule, iHealth shall have thirty (30) days to revise the Risk Analysis and provide the revised Risk Analysis to HHS for review. This process shall continue until HHS determines the Risk Analysis has been completed in accordance with the Security Rule.
		iHealth shall review the Risk Analysis annually. iHealth shall also promptly update the Risk Analysis in response to environmental or operational changes affecting the security of ePHI. Following an update to the risk analysis, iHealth shall assess whether its existing security measures are sufficient to protect its electronic PHI, and revise its risk management plan, policies and procedures, and training materials, as needed.
	**Develop and Implement a Risk Management Plan**
	iHealth shall develop a risk management plan sufficient to address and mitigate any security risks and vulnerabilities identified in the Risk Analysis described in section V.A. above (“Risk Management Plan”).

HHS shall review and recommend changes to the process. Upon receiving HHS’ recommended changes, iHealth shall have sixty (60) days to provide a revised process to HHS for review and approval. iHealth shall implement its process, including distributing to workforce members with responsibility for performing such evaluations within ninety (90) days of HHS’ approval.
	**Policies and Procedures**

		Within 60 days of HHS’s approval of the Risk Analysis identified in Section V.A., iHealth shall provide such policies and procedures, consistent with paragraph 1 above, to HHS for review and approval. Upon receiving any required changes to such policies and procedures from HHS, iHealth shall have 30 days to revise the policies and procedures accordingly and provide the revised policies and procedures to HHS for review and approval. This process shall continue until HHS approves such policies and procedures.
