Summary: The following article discusses how when we use data to serve patients in hospitals or doctors offices, then that data has served its purpose. At what point should clinical data be used as a sort of public information so that we can help other people with similar health situations get the proper healthcare that they need? It is a tricky subject because that health information is as personal as data can get, so we have to consider what privacy sacrifices would be made in order to make the clinical data public.
