Revision of Data 3 Law and Utilization of Personal Healthcare Data in Platform Economy Era

Public reporting of healthcare data is not a new concept. This initiative continues to proliferate as consumers and other stakeholders seek information on the quality and outcomes of care.

Several professional organizations have published policy statements articulating the main principles that should establish the foundation for public reporting programs in the future.

Today the volume of healthcare data generated increased rapidly because of the number of patients in each hospital increasing. These data are most important for decision making and delivering the best care for patients. Healthcare providers are now faced with collecting, managing, storing and securing huge amounts of sensitive protected health information. As a result, an increasing number of healthcare organizations are turning to cloud based services. Cloud computing offers a viable, secure alternative to premise based healthcare solutions. The infrastructure of Cloud is characterized by a high volume storage and a high throughput. The privacy and security are the two most important concerns in cloud-based healthcare services.
