Business Associate as an individual or corporate “person” that performs on behalf of the covered entity any function or activity involving the use or disclosure of protected health information (PHI) and is not a member of the covered entity’s workforce. The definition of “function or activity” is all-encompassing: legal, actuarial, accounting, consulting, data processing, management, administrative, accreditation, financial services, and anything else for which a covered entity might contract out are included if access to PHI is involved. It is a better business practice for business associates to create a contingency plan.
