Compliance requirements help ensure the safety and well-being of students, patients, faculty, staff and the communities we serve.

Please review the section below that corresponds to your current phase in the curriculum.

All incoming Indiana University School of Medicine students are required to complete a series of compliance requirements as part of the matriculation process. These requirements help ensure compliance with university policies, accreditation standards and clinical partner requirements while maintaining the safety and well-being of students, patients, faculty, staff and the communities we serve.

The following compliance requirements must be completed by the established matriculation deadline:

  • Indiana University HIPAA Module
  • Indiana University Bloodborne Pathogens Training for Clinical Personnel
  • Basic Life Support (BLS) Certification
  • IU Health Annual Mandatories
  • Indiana University School of Medicine Annual Policy Review Attestation
  • Indiana University School of Medicine Annual Technical Standards Review and Attestation
  • Indiana University School of Medicine HIPAA Annual Attestation Form
  • National Provider Identifier (NPI) Number
  • IU School of Medicine Matriculation Immunization Requirements

Access to MedHub will not be available until approximately mid-July. Students will receive an email notification once access has been granted, along with additional communications regarding compliance requirements, deadlines, submission procedures and other important onboarding information.

Students are strongly encouraged to begin working on their compliance requirements as soon as possible and to retain copies of all required documentation. Examples of documentation may include:

  • Immunization and health records
  • Physical examination forms
  • Basic Life Support (BLS) certification cards
  • Training completion certificates
  • National Provider Identifier (NPI) documentation
  • Any additional materials required for compliance verification

To facilitate a smooth submission process, students should create a dedicated electronic folder to store all compliance-related documentation. Having these materials readily available will allow for timely submission once MedHub access becomes available.

Detailed information regarding required immunizations, health records, exemption requests, waiver processes and submission requirements can be found on the IU School of Medicine Immunization Requirements page.


Students are responsible for carefully reviewing the instructions provided for each compliance requirement. Detailed guidance, deadlines, acceptable documentation, submission procedures and requirement-specific information will be available through MedHub once access is granted.

Failure to complete all required compliance items by the designated deadline or to follow the documented submission procedures may result in delays in processing, an incomplete compliance status and restrictions on participation in educational activities.

Questions regarding matriculation compliance requirements may be directed to the IU School of Medicine Compliance Office at compreq@iu.edu.

Phase 1 Year 2 Annual Compliance

All Phase 1 Year 2 students are required to complete annual compliance requirements by the established deadline each academic year. These requirements ensure continued compliance with university, clinical partner and accreditation standards as students prepare to enter clinical training. Information adapted from the 2026–2027 Phase 1 Year 2 Mandatory Compliance Requirements document.

The following annual compliance requirements must be completed:

  • Indiana University HIPAA Module
  • Indiana University Bloodborne Pathogens Training for Clinical Personnel
  • Basic Life Support (BLS) Certification
  • IU Health Annual Mandatories and Onboarding Materials
  • Indiana University School of Medicine Annual Policy Review Attestation

Students are responsible for reviewing all requirement-specific instructions carefully before submitting documentation.

Most compliance documentation must be submitted through MedHub for review and verification by the IU School of Medicine Compliance Office. Submission of documentation to a regional campus, clerkship office, department or other university office does not satisfy IU School of Medicine annual compliance requirements unless specifically indicated.
Examples of required documentation may include:

  • HIPAA completion certificates
  • Bloodborne Pathogens completion certificates
  • BLS certification cards
  • Signed attestation forms
  • Additional onboarding documentation as required

Failure to complete annual compliance requirements by the designated deadline may result in restrictions on participation in educational activities, clinical experiences or other academic requirements.

Failure to comply with the rules of the clinical affiliate may jeopardize the student’s ability to complete graduation requirements. IU School of Medicine will make reasonable efforts to minimize disruption but cannot guarantee students will not be affected or that they will earn a degree.
