For all donated tissue and nontransplant anatomic parts, the donor's name, address and any other information which would directly or indirectly identify the donor shall not be disclosed or released by the bank to any person or entity, except upon the written consent of the donor or the person authorized by law to make the donation, or to authorized employees of the department, or as permitted by law. The recipient's name, address and any other information which would directly or indirectly identify the recipient shall not be disclosed or released by the tissue bank to any person or entity, except upon the written consent of the recipient, or except to authorized employees of the department, or as permitted by law.

(b) Complete and accurate records of tissue and nontransplant anatomic parts released for transplantation, transfer, artificial insemination, implantation, research and education shall be kept by the tissue transplantation facility or insemination/implantation site. Such records shall be open to inspection by the department and shall be kept for at least seven (7) years after transplantation or six (6) months after the expiration date of the tissue, whichever is longer.

Nontransplant anatomic banks shall retain records for five (5) years after release of nontransplant anatomic parts for research or education purposes. The recipient's name, address, and any other information which would directly or indirectly identify the recipient shall not be disclosed or released by the tissue transplantation facility or insemination/implantation site to any person or entity, except upon the written consent of the recipient, or except to authorized employees of the department, or as permitted by law.

(2) medical and social history information obtained from the donor, donor's family, and other individuals, including the names of the persons obtaining and giving the information, unless this record is transferred to a comprehensive tissue procurement service; and

(3) documentation of donor informed consent or consent of the person authorized by law to consent to the donation, if applicable, including such person's address, unless the record is transferred to a comprehensive tissue procurement service.
