  • Information privacy for personal data in medical records
    Welzer-Družovec, Tatjana ...
    Privacy is the individual's right to determine if, when and how data about them will be collected, stored, used and shared with others. The Personal Data Protection Act is intended to prevent illegal ... or unauthorized access to every aspect of onećs private information. Under this act, medical records are treated as sensitive data, which can only be gathered and processed under particular conditions. There are numerous message flows between medical staff and medical records that are often completely unprotected and can be accessed easier than might be expected. Complications arise when a patient wants to access their own data, which is often impossible -- despite the fact that each individual has the right to view their own medical record. In this paper, we will try to answer the question of what actions a medical staff has to perform and the knowledge they have to have in order to adequately protect a patient's personal data and enable a patientćs access to their own data, while simultaneously not imperilling appropriate medical care. Our answer will be given on the basis of studying the guidelines for medical staff regarding the protection of personal data, the corresponding Slovenian legislation, and the recommendations of a particular institution.
