Completing Internal Review and Approval of Tidepool

Our Clinic Success team is standing by to assist with internal review and approval processes required before using Tidepool. Please consider the following steps and resources for each respective stakeholder within your Clinic or Health System.

Typically, there are three groups of stakeholders who will need to review and approve Tidepool for use: Clinicians (who will upload, review, and document data), IT (who will manage installation and ongoing updates of Tidepool Uploader), Legal (to ensure HIPAA compliance)

Clinical

IT

    1. As Tidepool Uploader requires Administrator permissions to install, your IT team will be responsible for installing Tidepool Uploader on any computer that will be used to upload patient data. To expedite their process, we recommend identifying primary IT contact to coordinate with Clinic Success team to facilitate answering technical questions related to Tidepool’s software.
    2. Please share Tidepool’s Public Technical Documentation and Security Information with any IT staff responsible for reviewing and approving Tidepool.
    3. Please contact clinic@tidepool.org to facilitate responses for IT audits, questionnaires, or any other technical questions that are not answered by Tidepool’s Public Technical Documentation and Security Information.
