Abstract
The Office for Civil Rights (OCR) of the Department of Health and Human Services has implemented a new system of records (SOR) entitled the "Program Information Management System (PTMS), HHS/OS/OCR (09-90-0052)." This system has replaced OCR's two previous systems of records, the "Case Information Management System (CIMS), HHS/OS/OCR (09-90-0050)," and the "Complaint File and Log, HHS/OS/OCR (09-90- 0051)." PIMS is a new integrated system with enhanced electronic storage, retrieval and tracking capacities. The final rule exempts the investigative records in PIMS from the notification, access, correction and amendment provisions of the Privacy Act, 5 U.S.C. 552a, pursuant to subsection (k)(2), which applies to investigative materials compiled for law enforcement purposes.
