The Tories are selling your GP records to the highest bidder. Here's how to to stop them.

Not that Matt Hancock flogging our personal data is new. Our NHS records are being trawled on a huge scale. But you can opt-out.

Removing or obscuring a few obvious identifiers, like someone’s name or NHS number from the data, doesn’t make their medical history anonymous. Indeed, the unique combination of medical events that makes individuals’ health data so ripe for exploitation is precisely what makes it so identifiable. Your medical record is like a fingerprint of your whole life.

The public now has an opt-out date. NHS Digital states that it will start sharing data on 1 July. But if you don’t want the government to share your data, you need to opt out by 23 June. There’s a form you need to complete.

NHS patient data to be made available for sale to drug and insurance firms

Privacy experts warn there will be no way for public to work out who has their medical records or how they are using it

www.theguardian.com

If an application is approved then firms will have to pay to extract this information, which will be scrubbed of some personal identifiers but not enough to make the information completely anonymous – a process known as "pseudonymisation".

However, Mark Davies, the centre's public assurance director, told the Guardian there was a "small risk" certain patients could be "re-identified" because insurers, pharmaceutical groups and other health sector companies had their own medical data that could be matched against the "pseudonymised" records. "You may be able to identify people if you had a lot of data. It depends on how people will use the data once they have it. But I think it is a small, theoretical risk," he said.

Also for the sake of clarity, I mean NHS systems and admin are so utterly useless, that anyone buying the data will get so bored waiting for the right stuff to arrive, they will demand a refund and buy it from France...

After reading this thread, I decided to look at mine. I didn't exist prior to 1994 it seems and I am in a poor state of health. They had better be quick if they want to do something with this data
