An interesting discussion on #medicaldata #privacy and #selfsovereignty in this LinkedIn thread. I think I have hijacked the main (self promotional) post of the Orion Health CEO there ... :-D

TITLE: More on BetterHelp Settlement

I believe this has a bit more information in it than the earlier
report.  The fine is still "proposed", but:

-- BetterHelp agrees with the settlement
-- BetterHelp is banned under the settlement from continuing to share
customer health data for marketing purposes
-- BetterHelp continued to do this even after being purchased by Teladoc
-- BetterHelp denies there is anything wrong with what they did and
assert that **its standard industry practice**.

M. de Arruda Botelho Herr et al., "Bringing the Algorithms to the Data -- Secure Distributed Medical Analytics using the Personal Health Train (PHT-meDIC)"¹

The need for data privacy and security -- enforced through increasingly strict data protection regulations -- renders the use of healthcare data for machine learning difficult. In particular, the transfer of data between different hospitals is often not permissible and thus cross-site pooling of data not an option. The Personal Health Train (PHT) paradigm proposed within the GO-FAIR initiative implements an 'algorithm to the data' paradigm that ensures that distributed data can be accessed for analysis without transferring any sensitive data. We present PHT-meDIC, a productively deployed open-source implementation of the PHT concept. Containerization allows us to easily deploy even complex data analysis pipelines (e.g, genomics, image analysis) across multiple sites in a secure and scalable manner. We discuss the underlying technological concepts, security models, and governance processes. The implementation has been successfully applied to distributed analyses of large-scale data, including applications of deep neural networks to medical image data.

Bei mir gibt's belanglos-lustigen Content aus meinem Leben als Mutter (mit #ADHS Huckepack), dem Alltag in der #elternzeit und bald (hoffentlich) dem Masterstudium im Bereich #medicaldata Management.

Ich fahre viel #fahrrad (und #lastenrad), rege mich über schlecht geparkte Autos auf und #nähen in meiner Freizeit.

Members of German Chaos Computer Club (CCC) have demonstratively patched "highly secure" VPN-routers encrypting medical data
in order to enable the use of updated encryption certificates.

Router manufacturers had provided devices without a certificate update option.
The hack could save health insurances & their customers from up to 400 mio €€€ of extra cost for new hardware.
