Bezbednost i zaštita podataka o ličnosti u zdravstvenim ustanovama

Abstract

Inspiracija za rad i problem (i) koji se radom oslovljava (ju): Stupanjem na snagu Opšte uredbe o zaštiti podataka (GDPR), kao i odgovarajućih nacionalnih propisa koji su transponovali odredbe ove uredbe u zakonodavstvo zemalja koje nisu članice EU, pred zdravstvene ustanove u regionu stavlja se nimalo lak zadatak da usklade svoje procedure sa ovim odredbama.

Ciljevi rada (naučni i/ili društveni): Cilj rada je da se omogući objedinjeni prikaz važećih bezbednosnih standarda, kao i odgovarajućih smernica za bezbednost u zdravstvu, čija primena omogućava veću bezbednost zaposlenih, pacijenata i drugih ljudi koji posećuju zdravstvene ustanove. Takođe, u radu će biti prikazani i regulatorni zahtevi koji se od-nose na posebne kategorije podataka o ličnosti – podatke o zdravstvenom stanju.

Metodologija/Dizajn: U radu se daje pregled normativnih aspekata bezbednosti u zdravstvu, kao i zaštite podataka o ličnosti, faktičkom stanju u ovoj oblasti, te izazovima koje donose novi propisi u ovoj oblasti.

Ograničenja istraživanja/rada: Podaci o zdravstvenom stanju građana, kao posebno osetljivi podaci o ličnosti, podrazumevaju posebne mere zaštite i specifične tehničke, fizičke i organizacione kontrole, tako da je u radu prikazan samo jedan od mogućih pri-stupa u sprovođenju ovih mera.

Rezultati/Nalazi: Ističe se značaj adekvatnog razumevanja i primene odredaba zakonske regulative, kao i srazmernih kontrola za osiguranje bezbednosti lica i podataka o ličnosti.

Generalni zaključak: Naročite napore treba uložiti da se u zdravstvene ustanove implementiraju mere koje će garantovati bezbednost podataka o ličnosti, imajući u vidu istoriju čestih i ozbiljnih incidenata narušavanja ovih podataka.

Opravdanost istraživanja/rada: Opravdanost rada nalazi se u činjenici da je potrebno garantovati pacijentima, građanima i zaposlenima u zdravstvenim ustanovama adekvatan nivo zaštite podataka o ličnosti, ali i ličnu bezbednosti tokom procesa koje obavljaju.
