HIPAA and Streaming Video

["Mclaughlin, Kevin (mclaugkl)" <mclaugkl () UCMAIL UC EDU>]

Hi All:

For those of you that are doing streaming video of surgeries or clinical trials/or non-clinical research using PHI, 
etc.     how are you handling the external transfer of that video data?

If you are transferring it internally via a  closed network can it be plaintext?  What is the definition of a closed 
network?

Thanks,

- Kevin
