of Records. 

SUMMARY: As required by the Privacy 

Act of 1974, 5 U.S.C. 552a(e), notice is 

hereby given that the Department of 

Veterans Affairs (VA) is amending the 

system of records currently entitled 

‘‘Spinal Cord Injury and Disorders 

Outcomes—Repository (SCIDO–R)–VA’’ 

(108VA11S) as set forth in the Federal 

Register 74 FR 11185–11186 dated 

March 16, 2009. VA is amending the 

System Name, System Location, 

Categories of Records in the System,

Manager and Address. VA is 

republishing the system notice in its 

entirety. 

DATES: Comments on the amendment of 

this system of records must be received

comment is received, the amended 

system will become effective May 16, 

2012.

(704) 245–2492. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Spinal Cord Injury and Disorders 

Outcomes—Repository (SCIDO–R) 

provides a registry of veterans with 

spinal cord injury and disorders 

(SCI&D). This repository contains 

pertinent information on veterans with 

SCI&D and enables better coordination 

of care among VHA staff. The purpose 

of the repository is to assist clinicians, 

administrators, and researchers in 

identifying and tracking services for 

veterans with spinal cord injuries and 

disorders resulting from trauma or 

diseases. The SCIDO–R can also 

facilitate clinical, administrative, and 

research reports for medical center use. 

Regional SCIDO repositories provide 

aggregate data to the National SCIDO–R 

database at the Austin Information 

Technology Center (AITC). This 

centralized AITC repository is used to 

provide a VA-wide review of veteran 

demographics and clinical aspects of 

injury and disorders for administrative 

and research purposes. VHA’s Spinal 

Cord Injury and Disorders Services 

developed the SCIDO–R and these 

records are maintained exclusively by 

VA. 

VA is renaming the system of records 

from Spinal Cord Dysfunction 

Registry—VA to Spinal Cord Injury and 

Disorders Outcomes—Repository 

(SCIDO–R)–VA. 

The Location has been amended to 

include that each Spinal Cord Injury 

Center has a SCIDO application 

deployment. 

The Category of Records in the 

System is amended to reflect that the 

SCIDO–R will also store outcome 

measures of impairment, and a 

registrant may have multiple outcome 

entries. 

The following routine use disclosure 

statements are added: 

Routine use fourteen (14) states that 

VA may disclose identifying 

information, including social security 

number, concerning veterans, spouses of 

veterans, and the beneficiaries of 

veterans to other federal agencies for the 

purpose of conducting computer 

matches to obtain information to 

determine or verify eligibility of 

veterans receiving VA medical care 

under Title 38, U.S.C. 

Routine use fifteen (15) states that VA 

may disclose patient identifying 

information to federal agencies and VA 

and government-wide third-party 

insurers responsible for payment of the 

cost of medical care for the identified 

patients, in order for VA to seek 

recovery of the medical care costs. 

These records may also be disclosed as 

part of a computer matching program to 

accomplish this purpose. 

The Report of Intent to Amend a 

System of Records Notice and an 

advance copy of the system notice have 

been sent to the appropriate 

Congressional committees and to the 

Director of the Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) as required by 5 

U.S.C. 552a(r) (Privacy Act) and
