The Department of Health and Human Services shall provide to the Bureau the request for the criminal history, the fingerprints of the individual to be checked, any additional information required by the Bureau, and a form consenting to the check of the criminal record and to the use of fingerprints and other identifying information required by the State or National Repositories signed by the individual to be checked.
The Department of Health and Human Services and Emergency Medical Services Disciplinary Committee, established by G.S. 143-519, shall keep all information obtained pursuant to this section confidential.
