OK @beuc's #ConsumerDebates event on #EHDS is over.
tl;dr:
🤩 @TheProgressives MEP #PetarVitanov seems to have patients' right to #privacy front and centre. Kudos!
😖 The @EU_Commission seems to neither understand #bigdata nor their own #dataprotection law #GDPR. Sad!
💸 The #insurance #industry wants to milk us for more profits. Surprise!
🤔 And #BEUC defends #patients' rights but for some reason less so when it comes to the secondary use of #medical records by 3rd parties.
*** END ***

Of course the #insurance lobbyist gratefully jumps on that falsehood, throwing all the #innovation and medical advancement journey BS that the insurance industry allegedly provides at us. #EHDS #ConsumerDebates
-
It's mind-boggling how the @EU_Commission rep just says "don't worry, anonymised #medical records are not personal data" while ignoring a decade of #computer #science and re-identification #research.

-
Oh my, #InsuranceEurope lobbyist pulls out the "data will cure #HIV" argument. And because data collection allegedly leads to lower insurance prices, it's really about #inclusion not #discrimination. 🤦
Sure.
-
Great push-back from @beuc's #MoniqueGoyens against the insurance lobby: the whole idea of #insurance is the #mutualisation of #risk, so abusing medical records for individual premiums and prices breaks the entire system.
-
MEP #PetarVitanov points again at vulnerable folks 💪 Women in #Poland seeking abortion (abroad) need the protection provided by a #consent regime.
Abuse risks are all over the Commission's #EHDS proposal.
-
Lobby group #InsuranceEurope wants our medical records so they can be "competitive in the market", otherwise "higher prices", sorry folks.
Some people really have no shame.
-
So good to see MEP #PetarVitanov pushing back and emphasising the risks of #discrimination and abuse in particular for #marginalised people when medical records are shared without consent as foreseen by the #EHDS.
-
The Commission official continues to peddle the "the #EHDS gives patients more control over their data" nonsense. It doesn't.
-
I'm following @beuc's #EHDS #ConsumerDebates online and I still fail to understand this:
Their representative polls found that "the further away from the GP, the less people are willing to share their #HealthData" and yet BEUC concludes that while data use by medical profl's should require #OptIn consent, for secondary use by #BigPharma and #BigTech an #OptOut option is enough. ❓❓❓
-
Only 51% of consumers are willing to share their health data with healthcare practitioners across EU member states to secure good treatment when they are abroad.#EHDS
