Data protection in healthcare — the highest standard
Healthcare providers process some of the most sensitive personal data that exists: diagnoses, treatment histories, medications, mental health information. Under Art. 9 GDPR, health data is a "special category" requiring enhanced protection. Non-compliance carries significant regulatory risk — and real harm to patients.
Typical challenges in healthcare
- Patient consent and information obligations for treatment documentation
- Electronic patient records and medical practice management systems
- Data sharing with specialists, hospitals, and insurers
- Appointment scheduling systems and online booking
- Employee data (medical staff, shift schedules, payroll)
- Video surveillance in waiting rooms and corridors
- Laboratory data and diagnostic imaging systems
- Data retention obligations vs. GDPR erasure rights
