Electronic Authentication Steps for Accessing EvaluationWeb
Before EvaluationWeb access is granted, all persons requesting access must be e-authenticated (identity proofed) via the CDC’s Secure Access Management Services (SAMS) system. Once e-authentication is complete, Luther Consulting will provide instructions on accessing EvaluationWeb.
Below are the steps to become e-authenticated:
Step 1: Go to the EvaluationWeb login page at http://www.xpems.com and click on ‘Request CDC eAuthentication.’
Step 2: Complete the e-authentication request form, including project (HIV), jurisdiction (Minnesota), your legal first and last names, email, telephone number, and agency. Click ‘Go’ to submit the online form to CDC.
Step 3: Complete the Add/Edit Account Form (PDF: 179KB/ 2 pages) or (Word: 64KB/2 pages) to set up an EvaluationWeb account and the correct permissions for a new user. The form is also used to change permissions for an existing user according to changes in job responsibilities.
Step 4: The User Agreement Form (PDF: 152KB/1 page) must be signed and submitted to MDH along with the Add/Edit Account Form when a new user account is being established.
Step 5: Review the Rules of Behavior (PDF: 240KB/15 pages) and indicate acknowledgement by signing the User Agreement Form.
Step 6: Submit your completed Add/Edit Account form and User Agreement to:
Minnesota Department of Health STD and HIV Section – Attn: Tina Klein 625 Robert Street North, P.O. Box 64975 St. Paul, Minnesota 55164‐0975
or via confidential fax: 651‐201‐4040
Step 7: You will receive your first invitation email from “Sams‐No‐Reply (CDC)” to register with the SAMS Partner Portal (see example in Attachment 1). SAMS is CDC’s secure website where public health partners can access sensitive information and applications, such as EvaluationWeb, that are not available to the public. The email will also have your SAMS user ID and a temporary password.
Step 8: Register with SAMS by logging into SAMS using the website link, user ID, and temporary password included in your first invitation email and completing the registration form. The password you set during the registration process will be your password for accessing SAMS in the future. You must register with SAMS within 30 days of receiving your invitation email. If you wait longer than 30 days, you will need to repeat Steps 1 and 2 again.
Be sure to enter your name and address as they appear on your government‐issued ID, unless you have legally changed your name or moved since the ID was issued.
If you legally changed your name since your government ID was issued, you will also need to provide supporting documentation, such as a legal name change certification or marriage certificate. If you have moved since your government ID was issued, you will also need to provide a current utilities bill. Step 9: After registration you will receive a second email from “Sams‐No‐Reply (CDC)” (see example in Attachment 2). This email contains the identity verification request form at the bottom.
Print this email and present it with a government‐issued identity document (and any supporting documentation, if needed) to a notary public or MDH designated proofing agent.
The notary or proofing agent will verify your identity document (and any supporting documentation, if needed) and complete their portion of the printed email. Specific instructions on verifying the identity document and completing the form are on the email form.
Acceptable identity documents include government‐issued photo ID cards that have an ID number (e.g., state‐issued driver’s license, U.S. military ID, or U.S. passport).
Step 10: Fax or mail the printed email form, along with a copy of the identity document(s), to:
Toll‐free fax number: 877‐681‐2899
Mail: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Attn: Proofing Authority 1600 Clifton Road, N.E. Mailstop K‐94 Atlanta, GA 30333
Step 11: You will receive approval by a third email from SAMS (see example in Attachment 3). Ignore the instructions for logging into EvaluationWeb that are included in this email. You may also receive a letter through the U.S. Postal Service at the address you provided.
You will receive a fourth email from SAMS (see example in Attachment 3) saying that your account with the SAMS Partner Portal has been activated. Step 12:
Once approved by SAMS, you will receive two emails from Luther Consulting with your EvaluationWeb login instructions, including username and temporary password. You must log into EvaluationWeb within 24 hours of receiving this email or your temporary password will expire. If this occurs, contact Luther Consulting. Information on SAMS Identity Proofing For more information about registering with SAMS, please contact the SAMS Help Desk at [email protected] or 877‐681‐2901.
The purpose of Identity Verification is to establish that you are who you claim to be. In order to complete this
process, the information you provide must be accurate and consistent. Here are some ways to make the process run
smoothly:
If the name on your ID does not match the name you used during registration (you got married; you had a
legal name change; etc.), you'll need to provide some supporting documentation with your request form ‐ for example: a copy of your marriage license or order of legal name change.
If the address on your ID does not match the address you used during registration (you moved), you'll need to
provide supporting documentation with your request form ‐ for example: a copy of your voter registration card or a utility bill in your name that shows the new address.
If you have any questions about what is required, please contact the CDC Proofing Authority at the SAMS Help
Desk using the information provided below.
Make Legible Photocopies
In order to speed you through the Identity Verification process, please ensure that your documents copy and fax
cleanly. Specific things you can do include:
Select the ´Enlarge´ option when photocopying your IDs ‐ 50 or 100 percent enlargements help make your
documents more legible.
Ensure good contrast and clarity on your original photocopy before you fax.
Set your fax to a high dpi or ´fineness´ setting ‐ the bigger the better.

CDC User Identity Verification Request Form Version 2.0
The individual presenting this form is requesting access to potentially sensitive Public Health information and/or
information systems operated by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Federal law requires each requestor's identity to be verified prior to receiving authorization for access. You are being
asked to assist in this important verification process.
Please examine one of the photo identification types listed below as presented by the requestor. If the ID is unexpired
and, in your opinion, appears legitimate, please compare the photo to the individual in front of you. If, in your
opinion, the photo matches the person, please check the identity document type and record the document number.
Please then sign and date this document as indicated below.
If you are a Notary Public, please also include your stamp/seal.
If you are a designated CDC Proofing Agent, please provide your CDC email address or SAMS ID. Thank you
for your assistance. If you have questions or concerns, please contact the CDC Proofing
Authority Help Desk between the hours of 8:00 AM and 8:00 PM EST Monday through Friday (excepting
Third Email: SAMS Activity Authorization NOTE: You will NOT be able to access EvaluationWeb using the link and user name/password you
receive in the third and fourth emails from SAMS. You will receive two separate emails from Luther Consulting telling you how to access EvaluationWeb and providing you with
your username and temporary password.
MDH will not ask Luther Consulting to issue your EvaluationWeb username and password until we
receive confirmation that you have completed the online EvaluationWeb training and signed the
Fourth Email: SAMS Account Activation NOTE: Failure to log in to SAMS for over 365 days from the last successful login will result in your
SAMS account being terminated. This will NOT impact your access to EvaluationWeb. However, if you ever need access to another CDC data system in the future, the full registration process,
including identity proofing, must be completed again.
