Consent Management
Within emerging healthcare information exchanges, patients must trust that their health information remains private, used only when needed by authorized individuals or entities.
BBN is examining medical consent requirements for providers, payers and patients to design granular, role-based access control systems that manage these requirements within integrated healthcare networks, HIEs, and RHIOs. Such a system can ultimately place patients at the center of health information exchanges, allowing them to direct communication of their data within the scope of current laws, regulations and policies.
