UK-Japan Joint Symposium 2020 on Next Generation Health
The confidentiality and security of personal health data is paramount for ensuring
public trust in any health data system. An Authorized Public Purpose Access(APPA) system generates value by allowing the secure sharing of data amongst
health professionals and researchers and by having a system that is both patientcentered and accountable for the diverse needs of the health, scientific andresearch communities. Having publicly available health data benefits bothindividuals and society, and if that data is shared, the benefits could expand
internationally.
In this talk, experts in digital health from England and Japan will share new
approaches for using technology to help manage health data and future digital
health policy. They will also discuss opportunities and challenges in digital health,as well as enablers for digital health programs.
