The Oregon Order includes a range of topics, including requirements for access to confidential information, limits on the types of information that may be disclosed, and procedures for handling the disclosure process. The Oregon Order is divided into two separate types of orders: the General Order and the Special Order. The General Order includes general requirements for access to confidential information, including restrictions on who can access the information, the use of passwords and other security measures, and the use of encryption when transmitting confidential information. The General Order also sets out the procedures for requesting access to confidential information, including the filing of a request form and the disclosure of the information to the requester. The Special Order sets out special procedures for the disclosure of confidential information in certain circumstances, such as when the information is released in response to a court order or public records request.
