I'm with Kenda on this one. Gotta protect that patient data, even from the big shots. Just do it the right way, folks.

D is a creative idea, but good luck getting an exception approved in time for this review. Might as well just do it by the book.

A) The protected health information must be removed from the information. A substitute ''key'' may be supplied to allow re-identification, if needed.

C? Really? As if the government can just waltz in and take whatever data they want. Nice try, but I'll pass on that one.

B sounds like the safest option. No need to risk a HIPAA violation just to satisfy the commissioner's request.

Hmm, this looks like a tricky one. Gotta be careful with that protected health info, even for oversight agencies.
