Ontario State sells private information of healthcare to private companies and provides it to public
institute or organization for free of charge. Personal Health Information Protection Act (PHIPA)
permits the secondary use of health data by anonymizing it. This data is provided by using
k‐anonymity, and privacy analytics risk assessment tool (PARAT) was used to confirm the risk of
data. One of the schemes is the use in The Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario (CHEO). The
Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CICH), the National Science and Engineering Research
Council (NSERC), and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC) issues the
guidance of research ethics for the use of secondary medical data.
In US, Federal Trade Commissioner is developing laws prevents the illegal use of private data
according FTC Act. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of US takes similar
approaches with Canada
In UK, Information Commissioner Office of UK Ministry of Justice supports the penetration, justice,
regulation of data privacy. In medical area, UK National the Health and Social Care Information
Centre (NHS IC) supports Secondary Uses Service (SUS) and Pseudonymization Implementation
Project (PIP). These laws support the secondary use of medical information under the supervision
of UK government.
