Infolinx is a records and information management software that enables the Yukon Government (“YG”) to track, manage, and audit the complete lifecycle of physical records. The software was initially implemented within YG in 2018 to replace an older file-level physical records management system. The Department of Health and Social Services (“HSS”) initiated use of the Infolinx software in February, 2022. Pervious privacy work has been conducted on the Infolinx system, including an HPW Privacy Impact Assessment (“PIA”) which was completed in March 2021.
This HSS PIA will serve as a companion to the original HPW Infolinx PIA (2021) and highlight any differences or changes in the use of the Infolinx software within HSS, specifically to reference HIPMA as the legislative authority for the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Health Information (“PHI”), and update the legal authority table for collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information (PI) so it aligns with recent changes to the ATIPP Act.
