11. 2008 NAPHSIS Annual Meeting Celebrating 75 Years of Excellence Orlando, Florida June 1–5, 2008 Honor Sending State’s Limitations Each jurisdiction has its own laws and regulations that differ widely By signing IJE Agreement you’re agreeing to use others’ events appropriately Violations may occur, or data completeness may be unnecessarily compromised

12. 2008 NAPHSIS Annual Meeting Celebrating 75 Years of Excellence Orlando, Florida June 1–5, 2008 STEVE Manages “Permissions” Sending partners specify their jurisdictions’ limitations on data use when “setting up” STEVE Sending partners may specify data elements to be given to each program STEVE is more detailed and flexible than IJE Agreement “Matrix” of permissions
