Honest broker

From WikiMD's Food, Medicine & Wellness Encyclopedia

Honest broker - an individual, organization or system acting for, or on behalf of, a covered entity to collect and provide health information to research investigators in such a manner whereby it would not be reasonably possible for the investigators or others to identify the corresponding patients subjects directly or indirectly. The honest broker cannot be one of the investigators. The information provided to the investigators by the honest broker may incorporate linkage codes to permit information collation and/or subsequent inquiries (I.E., a "Re identification code"), however the information linking this re identification code to the patient's identity must be retained by the honest broker and subsequent inquiries are conducted through the honest broker.
