“Electronic Health records and the European Union –current legislation and future
directions. A perspective”
I am a working mum looking after a small child, a part-time job, a husband, a house… I also have Diabetes, an under-active Thyroid, fertility problems, depression, asthma and recently started medication to protect my kidneys!
I don’t have time to be ill!
I now order my prescriptions, book my appointments to see the doctor, check my test results and sometimes I even go over the conversation I had in my consultation with the Doctor when I feel I need to clarify issues.
I shop online, I communicate online, I educate myself online, I control my finances online. In 2007 it’s only right that I look after myself ONLINE.
The doctor and patient create the record together
• They record the symptoms, signs, examinations, results, tests, diagnoses, follow up plans and management plans
• The patient can reuse the record whenever they want and share it with whoever they want

How do we regulate the global health
records?
Hadfield Medical Centre patients’ model
• In 20043 a group of patients were asked to examine their own complete medical reccord in an English General Practice setting and to mark those parts of the record that they would not want to share with a national care record. As expected the patients chose parts of their records that had a social context as well as a health service context.

Hadfield Medical Centre patients’ model
• We used the following common coded ICD10 (International Classification of Diseases) roots from the GP record and produced a data engine that put them into the following unique folders. The patient then marked the folders that they did not want to share without consent at each attendance or health data interaction and those that they would share within a regulated health service environment.
Hadfield Medical Centre patients’ model
• Disease categories• Infectious/parasitic diseases• Neoplasms• Endocrine/metabolic• Blood diseases• Mental disorders• Nervous systems/senses
Hadfield Medical Centre patients’ model
• Disease categories
• Circulatory disorders• Respiratory• Digestive system• Genito-urinary system• Pregnancy/childbirth/puerperium• Skin/subcutaneous tissue
Hadfield Medical Centre patients’ model
• Disease categories• Musculoskeletal• Congenital abnormalities• Perinatal conditions• Symptoms, signs and ill defined
conditions/working diagnoses• Injury/poisoning• causes of injury/poisoning
Hadfield Medical Centre patients’ model
• These parts of the record that patients did want to be shared with a national record:
• Infectious diseases, • Drug and alcohol problems, • Mental and social health issues, • Sexuality – including pregnancy and
contraception • Genetics.
• A browser-based viewer for displaying personal health data from specified sources• Structured user friendly interface that can utilise all the patient data delivered from
floppy disc, CD or other secured location• Will link to the internet for further information for a given disease, condition, treatment
or drug. • Structured according to the World Health Organisation international classification of
disease.
The patients produced a pictorial template for their moral choices
Selection and display
• At the category selection page animated icons change from the category icon to the “invitation to view” icon and back again which indicates current conditions or issues.
• Clicking on the desired icon will show the record detail for that disease category.

European legal requirements
European convention on human Rights
EC 95/46
European General DataProtection Regulation
European legal requirements• The European Commission at Brussels
COM(2012) 11/4 draft2 is a proposal for a regulation of the European parliament and of the Council on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data (General Data Protection Regulation {[SEC(2012) 72} ] and {[SEC(2012) 73}].
European moral requirements
• Main article: Article 8 of the European Convention on Human Rights
• Article 8 provides a right to respect for one's "private and family life, his home and his correspondence", subject to certain restrictions that are "in accordance with law" and "necessary in a democratic society".
European moral requirements
• Article 9 provides a right to freedom of thought, conscience and religion. This includes the freedom to change a religion or belief, and to manifest a religion or belief in worship, teaching, practice and observance, subject to certain restrictions that are "in accordance with law" and "necessary in a democratic society"
European moral requirements
• Article 10 provides the right to freedom of expression, subject to certain restrictions that are "in accordance with law" and "necessary in a democratic society". This right includes the freedom to hold opinions, and to receive and impart information and ideas
Overarching moral requirements
• The corollary of these observations is that a nation cannot legislate uniformly for the morality of each of its citizens’ when supporting information technology. It can however support a model of consent and confidentiality if it creates legislation that models the biological models of ethics.
Overarching global legal requirements
• This paper suggests that national solutions for personal health data processing should include technology to allow citizens to specify which data they do not want sharing.
• There are other international requirements that we would wish to see which are outlined further in the paper.
Other international requirements that we would wish to see
• Data controllers (GPs in our particular case) should no longer be able to refuse online access to data subjects to all of their real time digital data if the technology can allow this access.
• Data subjects should have the option of being part of a dynamic and ongoing process of deciding which pats of their data are sensitive.
Other international requirements that we would wish to see
• Patient sensitive data (as defined by the patients as they view their data as it is being created with real time access to data that current technology allows– or later as they view it through their access rights) should be digitally coded and recorded at source as processing takes place.
Other international requirements that we would wish to see
• Patient sensitive data (as defined by the patients as they view their data or later as they view it through their access rights) should be digitally coded and recorded at source as processing takes place.
• Data subjects should have an opportunity to be involved in the decisions that are made about the retention and destruction of their data.
Other international requirements that we would wish to see
• Data subjects should have an opportunity to be involved in the decisions that are made about the retention and destruction of their data.
• The law should include a requirement for states to include privacy educational in their national educational curricula.
Other international requirements that we would wish to see
• Digital audit trails of access to personal data should be made available to the data subjects.
• Data controllers should be under statutory obligation to publish on their public facing websites the information sharing contracts that they have made with other data controllers for the processing of sensitive personal data.
Other international requirements that we would wish to see
• Data controllers should be statutorily required to publish the details of data and parties involved in the information flows of sensitive data.
• Data controllers should be obliged to publish the details of bulk transfers of personal data that they make from one data controller to another and to automatically log which data controllers have accessed a data subject’s data.

European Commission
• The European Commissionis the executive body of the European Union. The body is responsible for proposing legislation, implementing decisions, upholding the Union’s Treaty and the general day-to-day running of the Union.

Member States of the European Union
“Nine out of ten Europeans (89%) say it is important for them to have
the same rights and protections over their personal information,
regardless of the country in which the authority or private company
offering the service is based.”
•“Seven out of ten people are concerned about their information being used for a different purpose from the one it was collected for.”
•“Two-thirds of people find it important to be able to transfer personal data to a new online service provider. This means, having the right to 'data portability'.”
“Six out of ten respondents say that they do not trust online businesses
(63%) or phone companies and internet service providers (62%). And our
reform can restore this trust, by giving back control over people's data.”
In January 2012, the European Commission proposed a comprehensive reform of data protection rules in the EU. The completion of this reform is a policy priority for 2015.
The objective of this new set of rules is to give citizens back control over of their personal data, and to simplify the regulatory environment for business.

“The conversation between the United States and Europe about data privacy has been through many twists and turns over the past year.”
The EU and the USA
“This has never been an easy conversation. Despite a great deal in common, differences in attitudes and legal systems have accentuated the differences that exist around privacy. And the Snowden disclosures turned the conversation into more of a scolding.”
“But as the initial anger subsides and the administration takes steps to affirm America’s commitment to protecting privacy at home and abroad, it may be possible to resume a genuine give-and-take.”
“There is a great deal at stake, because the transatlantic economy accounts for 50percent of the world’s GDP.
Digitally-enabled trade flows in and out of the United States amount to more than $500 billion, a rough measure of the value of data flows, and the largest share of these by far is with Europe.”
“This is why discussions of theTransatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) and mechanisms for the flow of digital information and protection of private data are significant.
The profound reaction to the Snowden disclosures in Europe, Brazil, and elsewhere have brought home just how large these issues loom on the global stage.”

• Citizens will become central resources for their own healthcare and will simultaneously create their own health record
• Computers the internet and information technology provide the data, understanding, knowledge, skills and attitudes that citizens require

• Patients, families and carers can see the record at home and abroad
• Patients can share the record at other healthcare record provider sites
• Service commissioners and public health can use the data according to local legal and professional standards

Consent for sharing and using data how can you consent to data being
seen if you have not seen it yourself?
• N… was a woman with diabetes who gave birth by vaginal delivery. Her baby, S.., was born with serious disabilities after shoulder dystocia during delivery. The doctor did not tell N… of the 9-10% risk of shoulder dystocia. The doctor said that she did not routinely discuss the risk of shoulder dystocia with women with diabetes for fear that, if told, such women would opt for a caesarean section. The court held that the doctor should have informed N…. of the risk and discussed with her the option of a caesarean section.

The Future
Artificial data engines will seek out information from the patient’s information repositoryto populate empty fields within new or repeated clinical pathways. Data engines willmatch and link codes from the data repositories to codes attached to original research,local service provision information, local service outcome information and national orinternational standards, allowing patients to rapidly increase their own knowledge base.
