INTERNATIONAL AND EUROPEAN LEGAL FRAMES ON DATA CONFIDENTIALITY WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO PATIENT HEALTH DATA
Summary
We believe that it is necessary to create conditions for the application of the mentioned international and regional standards in order to prevent misuse of the use of patient health information by different entities and for different purposes. It is also necessary to better regulate the prohibition of discrimination on the basis of the use of data obtained through genetic testing. Apart from the above, it is necessary to regulate more precisely the transfer or disclosure of this information based on the decision of the authorities of another country (eg request for submission of original medical documentation, in order to exercise certain health insurance rights,etc.).
Key words: patient, health care, international instruments, European standards.
