care data is back
via the son of care data
Senior healthcare techies have warned England's National Health Service (NHS) that it will need to be open with industry professionals and the wider general public as it forges ahead with the collation and potential sale of millions of Brits' medical records via a mega database.
As exclusively revealed by The Register on 12 December, senior heads at Microsoft, AWS, AstraZeneca and other businesses met behind closed doors with leaders of the NHS to thrash out ways to create a commercially valuable repository of 65 million patients’ data to improve healthcare, and mull ways to fund or even profit from it.

NHS England's top brass met big tech and pharma executives at an invite-only event in October this year to discuss collecting patient data to improve healthcare services, fund this whole data-management project, and potentially even profit from it. This record-organizing programme includes the creation of a “single, standardised, event-based, longitudinal patient record” repository for as many as 65 million Brits. Basically, everything you can imagine collected, cleaned up, curated, and searchable, in one place.
The repository will be expected to serve not only the NHS's medical professionals, but also potentially provide companies and researchers real-time access to the medical and genetic records of millions of people, anonymized as necessary, all with a profit to be made, our sources say.
