Or. Admin. Code § 943-120-0118

Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 12, December 1, 2024

Section 943-120-0118 - Conduct of Direct Data Entry Using Web Portal

(1) The web portal submitter is responsible for the conduct of the DDE transactions submitted on behalf of the provider, CCO, or PHP, as follows:

(a) The web portal submitter must take reasonable care to ensure that data and DDE transmissions are timely, complete, accurate, and secure, and must take reasonable precautions to prevent unauthorized access to the information system or the DDE transmission. The Authority may not correct or modify an incorrect DDE transaction prior to processing. The transactions may be rejected and the web portal submitter shall be notified of the rejection.

(b) The web portal submitter and the Authority must bear their own information system costs. The web portal submitter must, at their own expense, obtain access to Internet service that is compatible with and has the capacity for secure access to the Authority's web portal. Web portal submitters must pay their own costs for all charges, including but not limited to charges for equipment, software and services, Internet connection and use time, terminals, connections, telephones, and modems. The Authority is not responsible for providing technical assistance for access to or use of Internet web portal services or the processing of a DDE transaction.

(c) The web portal submitter must send and receive all data transactions in the Authority's approved format. Any attempt to modify or alter the DDE transaction format may result in denial of web portal access.

(d) Re-submissions. The web portal submitter must maintain source documents and back-up files or other means sufficient to re-create a data transmission in the event that re-creation becomes necessary for any purpose, within timeframes required by federal or state law, or by contractual agreement. Back ups, archives, or related files are subject to the terms of these rules to the same extent as the original data transmission.

(2) To protect security and confidentiality, web portal submitters must comply with the following:

(a) Refrain from copying, reverse engineering, disclosing, publishing, distributing, or altering any data or data transmissions, except as permitted by these rules or the contract, or use the same for any purpose other than that which the web portal submitter was specifically given access and authorization by the Authority or the provider.

(b) Refrain from obtaining access by any means to any data or the Authority's network and information system for any purpose other than that which the web portal submitter has received express authorization to receive access. If the web portal submitter receives data or data transmissions from the Authority which are clearly not intended for the receipt of web portal submitter, the web portal submitter will immediately notify the Authority and make arrangements to return or re-transmit the data or data transmission to the Authority. After re-transmission, the web portal submitter must immediately delete the data contained in the data transmission from its information system.

(c) Install necessary security precautions to ensure the security of the DDE transmission or records relating to the information system of either the Authority or the web portal submitter when the information system is not in active use by the web portal submitter.

(d) Protect and maintain, at all times, the confidentiality of security access codes issued by the Authority. Security access codes are strictly confidential and specifically subject, without limitation, to all of the restrictions in OAR 943-120-0170. The Authority may change the designated security access codes at any time and in any manner as the Authority in its sole discretion considers necessary.
