Join Ontario’s Information and Privacy Commissioner, Patricia Kosseim, in person, or via webcast, for a panel discussion on Friday, January 27 to mark Data Privacy Day. The theme of this year’s event is Building Trust in Digital Health Care, and is based on one of four strategic priority areas that are guiding the work of the IPC.
Digital tools open up great new opportunities for more efficient and effective health care. They also introduce new privacy and security risks to sensitive personal health information. How can health care organizations become more resilient against privacy breaches and cyberattacks? How can they successfully build and sustain a privacy-respectful culture? And what will it take for the health care sector to finally rid itself of faxes and unprotected emails — the top causes of health privacy breaches in Ontario?
Key issues to be discussed include:
- replacing faxes with more secure forms of digital communication
- ushering in administrative monetary penalties under Ontario’s health privacy law
- building privacy and security resiliency against breaches and cyberattacks
- fostering a privacy-respectful culture across an organization
Panelists:
- Sylvie Gaskin, Chief Privacy Officer, Ontario Health
- Michael Hillmer, ADM, Digital and Analytics Strategy Division, Ministry of Health
- Wendy Lawrence, Chief Risk, Legal and Privacy Officer, St. Joseph's Healthcare Hamilton
