Report on Privacy and PHRs Released
Posted February 20, 2008 by Lygeia Ricciardi
FYI today the World Privacy Forum released a new legal and policy analysis examining Personal Health Records and the privacy issues associated with them. This analysis, Personal Health Records: Why Many PHRs Threaten Privacy, was prepared by Robert Gellman for the World Privacy Forum. The analysis finds that significant, serious threats to privacy exist in some PHRs.
Maybe patients can use contract law to enhance the privacy of their health records. http://hack-igations.blogspot.com/2008/02/contracts-for-patient-privacy.html
