  1. News Article
    NHS England has ordered the collection of identifiable patient data from hospitals by US data firm Palantir, for a pilot scheme aimed at accelerating recovery of elective waiting lists. The regulator has instructed NHS Digital, with which it will merge in January, to use Palantir’s Foundry platform to collect data about patients’ admission, inpatient, discharge and outpatient activity at acute hospitals. Identifiable data such as patients’ NHS numbers, date of birth, and postcode will be collected through Palantir’s software. Patients cannot opt out of having their data collected. But NHS Digital’s Caldicott Guardian – who is meant to safeguard use of data – has identified “risks” in the pilot and said it needs additional work before it can meet confidentiality requirements. The data collected will be “anonymised in accordance with the ICO’s (Information Commissioner’s) Anonymisation Code of Practice”. However, privacy campaigners Medconfidential claimed this code is not fit for purpose and warned that NHS chiefs were making the same mistakes as previous failed efforts to use patient data appropriately.

    Healthcare Conferences UK in association with Christopher Fincken Former Chair of the UK Caldicott Guardian Council are pleased to announce the 8th National Annual Caldicott Guardians Conference. There are now more than 22,000 Caldicott Guardians in place in health, social care and beyond. Following the success of our previous Caldicott Guardian Events, this conference aims to bring current and aspiring Caldicott Guardians together to understand current issues and the national context, and to debate and discuss key issues and areas they are facing in practice. Chaired by Christopher Fincken, this conference will give you the opportunity to focus on the key areas of developing your skills as an effective Caldicott Guardian, learning from experienced Caldicott Guardians and Caldicott Decision Making. Hot topics this year will focus information sharing with the police, the new Caldicott Principle, information sharing during COVID-19, multi agency information sharing, difficult and ethical issues, and information sharing at the end of life.

    This report is not exclusive to the NHS, they set out recommendations for all industries. In this report, the APPG sets out its findings as follows: The UK regulatory framework of whistleblower protection is complicated, overly legalistic, cumbersome, obsolete and fragmented. The remedies provided by PIDA are mainly retrospective and largely not understood. A general obligation for public and private organisations to set up whistleblowing mechanisms and protections is missing. The definition of whistleblowing and whistleblowers is too narrow. Consequently, the protections set by the law apply only to a limited number of citizens and do not properly reflect existing working practice or protect the public. As a result of the excessive complexity and fragmentation of the regulatory frame work, there is little public knowledge or understanding of the existing legal protections for whistleblowers. That policy and procedure, while looking good on paper, bears no resemblance to actual practice. There is a disconnect between what is understood to be and what is the role of the prescribed persons leading to confusion, mistrust on both sides and allowing crimes and other wrongdoing to escape scrutiny. The cost of litigation is too great for most citizens and this is known and exploited by employers.

    This document outlines the eight Caldicott Principles to be adhered to with in all sectors of the NHS: Principle 1 - Justify the purpose(s) for using confidential information. Principle 2 - Don't use personal confidential data unless it is absolutely necessary. Principle 3 - Use the minimum necessary personal confidential data. Principle 4 - Access to personal confidential data should be on a strict need-to-know basis. Principle 5 - Everyone with access to personal confidential data should be aware of their responsibilities. Principle 6 - Comply with the law. Principle 7 - The duty to share information can be as important as the duty to protect patient confidentiality. Principle 8: Inform patients and service users about how their confidential information is used.
