Phase 2 Annual Compliance

Requirements

Indiana University School of Medicine students are required to maintain compliance with university policies, accreditation standards and clinical partner requirements throughout their medical education. Compliance requirements help ensure the safety and well-being of students, patients, faculty, staff and the communities we serve.

Phase 2 Students

All Phase 2 students are required to complete annual compliance requirements before beginning clinical clerkships. These requirements help ensure students are prepared to safely participate in patient care activities and meet the onboarding requirements of Indiana University School of Medicine and our affiliated clinical partners.

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
  • Indiana University School of Medicine Annual Technical Standards Review and Attestation
  • Indiana University School of Medicine HIPAA Annual Attestation Form
  • Fit Testing
  • IU Health Badging

Detailed instructions, annual deadlines, submission procedures and requirement-specific guidance are maintained within the Phase 2 Canvas site and MedHub.

Students are responsible for reviewing all requirement instructions carefully and completing each requirement by the established deadline.

Most compliance documentation must be submitted through MedHub for review and verification by the IU School of Medicine Compliance Office.

Examples of required documentation may include:

  • HIPAA completion certificates
  • Bloodborne Pathogens training certificates
  • BLS certification cards
  • Signed attestation forms
  • Fit Testing documentation
  • IU Health badging documentation
  • Additional onboarding materials as required

Submission of documentation to a regional campus, clerkship office, hospital department or affiliated clinical site does not satisfy IU School of Medicine compliance requirements unless specifically indicated.

Phase 2 students are required to maintain annual respiratory protection compliance through Fit Testing in accordance with applicable safety and clinical partner requirements.

Documentation submitted to MedHub should include:

  • Student name
  • Date of testing
  • Mask model(s) tested
  • Pass or fail result
  • Signature of the individual conducting the Fit Test

Students should retain copies of all Fit Testing documentation for their records. Annual Fit Testing is required for participation in clinical activities.

IU Health badging is required for students participating in clinical experiences at IU Health facilities.

Students will receive additional information regarding badge photo submission, approval requirements, badge distribution and associated deadlines through the Phase 2 Canvas site, MedHub and official IU School of Medicine communications. Students are responsible for monitoring their IU email account and completing all badging requirements by the designated deadline.

  • Maintain a current BLS certification from an approved provider.
  • Complete all required annual training modules and attestations.
  • Complete Fit Testing and IU Health badging requirements by the established deadlines.
  • Monitor your IU email regularly for compliance-related communications.
  • Retain copies of all submitted documentation.
  • Review both Canvas and MedHub regularly for updates and requirement-specific instructions.

Failure to complete annual compliance requirements by the designated deadline may result in delays in onboarding, restrictions on participation in clinical experiences, or an inability to begin or continue clerkship activities.
