[The Internet and its security].

Internet, is the greatest world net by by means of which nowadays the planet communicates, rapidly goes forward. The last years of the university in USA the commonly develop the more progressive concept of the net (Internet 2), thanks to the constant growing technologies, with the goal to answer the needs of the scientific and the educational institutions, but also the commercial institutions and the organizations. Almost the there is no more significant institution in the world which has not developed their web pages and data bases with the most actual contents available to the wider circle of the users. In this paper we have given the section of the most actual web pages. However, Internet is not immune to those users who are not benevolent and who have developed the different tools in the goal of the destroying or unabling of the normal use of all the Internet conveniences. The authors is considering the protection problem and the data security which get distributed by Internet.

Implementing regional information system for social and health care in Finland, Satakunta.

The Regional Information System, RIS is based on the open, regional architecture and it supports the regional, client-oriented seamless services in social and health care. By using the RIS it is possible for professionals for example to get an overview of the client's situation and to make a service chain plan for the client with the client's consent. The client can get access to his/her own data and to see his/her service plan, consents and log file. The development of the RIS started in the area of Satakunta in January 1999 and the implementation started in November 2001 in a national Macro Pilot project. The Ministry of Social Affairs and Health prepared a special law for Satakunta to enable the handling of client data in a regional context and the developing a regional system. The Ministry selected in the Spring 2001 three regions more in Finland to develop their services within the experimental Act. These four regions are approximately 50% out of the population in Finland.

Health information, the fair information principles and ethics.

If advanced electronic patient records are construed as epistemic patient analogues in information space, then the traditional property-model of patient records is longer appropriate. A new paradigm is required. This paper suggests a new paradigm, examines its ethical implications and explores ways in which these could be reflected in legal and regulatory mechanisms. Special attention is paid to privacy, security and access relative to the so-called "fair information principles".

Social, ethical and legal barriers to e-health.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Information technology such as electronic medical records (EMRs), electronic prescribing and decision support systems are recognized as essential tools in Europe, the U.S., Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. But significant barriers impede wide-scale adoption of these tools, especially EMR systems. OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this study were to investigate the present status of information technology in health care, the perceived benefits and barriers by primary care physicians. METHODS: Literature analysis and survey data from primary care physicians on adoption of information technology are reviewed. RESULTS: The U.S. trails European countries as well as Canada, Australia and New Zealand in the use of information technology in primary care. The results of the study indicate that physicians in general perceive benefits to information technology, but also cite major barriers to its implementation in their practices. These barriers include lack of access to capital by health care providers, complex systems and lack of data standards that permit exchange of clinical data, privacy concerns and legal barriers. CONCLUSIONS: Overcoming these barriers will require subsidies and performance incentives by payers and government; certification and standardization of vendor applications that permit clinical data exchange; removal of legal barriers; and greater security of medical data to convince practitioners and patients of the value of EMRs.

Compensation of hospital security directors: how does it compare with other industries and with other managers in the healthcare industry? What can you do to earn more?

A number of studies have been published recently which enable hospital security directors to evaluate where they currently stand compensation-wise and what their potential might be. These studies also enable them to compare salary levels with those of their counterparts in other industries and with those of other middle managers in their own field. In this report, we'll review some of the findings and what we believe they imply. We'll also present our recommendations on what can be done, if anything, to achieve salary levels more commensurate with the levels of responsibility held by security directors in the three fields that provide public accommodations--health care, higher education, and lodging.

Here is what you can do to protect patient privacy.

Although the free exchange of information is a necessary part of patient care, it's important to ensure that data aren't inadvertently shared with the wrong people. To avoid inappropriate disclosure, save patient-specific conversations for private areas, not hospital hallways or elevators. It's also important to take steps to keep case management forms secure, double-check requests for provider-to-provider faxes, and make sure post-discharge requests for information are routed through the health information management department. Case management departments also should have a confidentiality policy that defines how computerized files are maintained to prevent security breaches, how information releases are handled, and other aspects of information management.

Slovenian national health insurance card: the next step.

The Slovenian national health insurance company started a full-scale deployment of the insurance smart card that is at the present used for insurance data and identification purpose only. There is ample capacity on the cards that were selected, to contain much more data than needed for the purely administrative and charging purposes. There are plans to include some basic medical information, donor information, etc. On the other hand, there are no firm plans to use the security infrastructure and the extensive network, connecting the insurance company with the more than 200 self service terminals positioned at the medical facilities through the country to build an integrated medical information system that would be very beneficial to the patients and the medical community. This paper is proposing some possible future developments and further discusses on the security issues involved with such countrywide medical information system.

Challenges faced by e-healthcare comparative data warehouses.

More and more healthcare facilities are equipping themselves with DSS systems and looking at their own data in a benchmarking manner. Some are considering accessing data from other healthcare facilities to decrease costs while improving quality of care. Many vendors claim to have that information. Some redistribute publicly available data; others actively seek information from a multitude of facilities. Those vendors are faced with many challenges as they try to provide information that is meaningful and usable for their clients. This article explores some of these challenges, particularly the data and technical challenges. It addresses the issues of standardizing data, as well as the technology to manage and secure that information, and provides examples that illustrate solutions that some vendors have implemented.
