The User Identification Worksheet takes the list of users gathered by the Data Collector and lets you identify whether they are an employee or IT vendor.
Users who should have been terminated and should have had their access terminated can also be identified. This is an effective tool to determine if unauthorized users have access to protected information. It also is a good indicator of the efforts the organization goes to so terminated employees and vendors have their access quickly disabled.
Another benefit is that you can review the user list to identify generic logins, such as Nurse, Billing Office, etc., which are not allowed by HIPAA since each user is required to be uniquely identified. To save time the system allows you to enter default settings for all users and just change some as needed.
