IT: Guarantor for privacy: two hospitals and one AUSL sanctioned

Posted on February 20, 2021 by Dissent

Marco De Felice reports:

The Guarantor for privacy has sanctioned two hospitals and an AUSL, they had communicated medical information to the wrong people.

The three structures fined are the Sienese University Hospital , the University Hospital of Parma and the Romagna Local Health Authority . The two hospitals received a fine of €10,000, while for the Romagna AUsl the fine was €50,000.

… In all three cases, the errors are attributable to hospital staff as a result of inadequate procedures and common material errors.
