Section He-P 307.07 - Procedures for Patients to Withdraw from Participation in the Registry
(a) A patient, or the patient's parent or guardian if the patient is a minor, may withdraw from participation in the registry at any time, including the removal of information contained in the registry, as follows:
(1) The patient, or the patient's parent or guardian if the patient is a minor, shall complete the patient information section of "Withdraw and Remove Information from the New Hampshire Immunization/Vaccination Registry" (3/16 edition);
(2) The current health care provider who is participating in the registry shall complete the provider information section of "Withdraw and Remove Information from the New Hampshire Immunization/Vaccination Registry" (3/16 edition);
(3) The current health care provider in (2) above shall fax the completed "Withdraw and Remove Information from the New Hampshire Immunization/Vaccination Registry" (3/16 edition) to the department; and
(4) The department shall remove all patient information from the registry.
(b) If the patient does not have a current health care provider, a former health care provider who is participating in the registry may complete and submit "Withdraw and Remove Information from the New Hampshire Immunization/Vaccination Registry" (3/16 edition) in accordance with (a) above.
(c) If a patient, or the patient's parent or guardian if the patient is a minor, requests withdrawal from participation in accordance with (a) or (b) above, then no information relating to the patient shall remain in the registry, and no record of the transaction, including the request itself, shall be kept by either the department or the health care provider.
(d) It shall be the responsibility of the patient, or the patient's parent or guardian if the patient is a minor, to inform his or her other health care providers of his or her decision to withdraw from participation in the registry. In order to ensure that no future immunization/vaccination information is reported to the registry, such patient, or the patient's parent or guardian if the patient is a minor, shall complete a "Choose not to Participate in the New Hampshire Immunization/Vaccination Registry" form (3/16 edition) with each of the patient's current and administering health care providers who are participating in the registry.
(e) Nothing in this rule shall relieve the patient, or the patient's parent or guardian if the patient is a minor, who chooses to remove his or her information from the registry, from the obligation to comply with current immunization/vaccination requirements set forth in RSA 141-C:20-a or He-P 301.14.
