Contingent upon available funding and in consultation with the Initiative Board, the Arkansas Insurance Department will issue reports from data collected by the Initiative which may include descriptions of patterns of incidence and variation of medical treatment options, comparisons of health care quality and performance, state and regional cost patterns, utilization of services, how health care dollars are being spent and health care research activities. Reports generated by AID will be available to the public on a website.

Any and all reports will comply with federal and state privacy laws. Any and all reports will preserve competition consistent with Statement 6 of the Department of Justice and Federal Trade Commission Enforcement Policy and not deprive payers of existing trade secret protections.

After soliciting input from the Initiative Board, AID will develop a process by which individuals can request data sets to be reviewed by the Data Oversight Subcommittee and the Initiative Board and approved by the Commissioner. Where appropriate, individuals requesting data sets will sign a data use agreement to be approved or denied by the Commissioner, upon recommendation of the Data Oversight Subcommittee and the Initiative Board. AID will not release data sets for solely commercial purposes. The Commissioner may adopt a fee schedule to fulfill data requests under this Section.
