  11. NIGB Context: Changing health & social care landscape NATIONAL INFORMATION GOVERNANCE BOARD Health & Social Care Act 2012 Move from central to local Integration New organisational structures Patient / citizen centred e.g. access to records No decision about me without me Increased competition

  12. NIGB Health and Social Care Act 2012 Key considerations NATIONAL INFORMATION GOVERNANCE BOARD Changes to the legal bases for information processing IG roles and responsibilities of organisations in the new landscape Provision for the NHS Information Centre to request confidential patient information from health and social care bodies

  13. NIGB Health and Social Care Act 2012Key considerations NATIONAL INFORMATION GOVERNANCE BOARD • Balance between Confidentiality and Information Sharing - risks and issues • Impact of Organisational Change - risks and issues • Regulation in the ‘new world’ • National bodies need to consider whether identifiable information is really needed - Privacy Impact Assessments • Concerns have been raised over interim IG arrangements – NIGB transition guidance (November 2011)

  14. NIGB Context: Changing Information Governance landscape NATIONAL INFORMATION GOVERNANCE BOARD Future model development – IG Operating Model IG Review on behalf of the Secretary of State Organisational changes – need to ensure system wide consistency IG Levers

  15. NIGB Moving forward: IG levers NATIONAL INFORMATION GOVERNANCE BOARD Contract Terms with providers and the oversight management and enforcement of contractual provisions Information Standards to the extent they are applicable to information governance but they have the benefit of being health and social care system wide CQC registration criteria – currently limited scope in relation to enforcement - future role for NIGC? Legal enforcement through the Information Commissioner’s Office in relation to the Data Protection Act 1998

  16. NIGB Future model - practicalities (1) NATIONAL INFORMATION GOVERNANCE BOARD Culture & context – paper records will continue; technology needs to be user friendly – otherwise people will find way to circumvent controls! Storage and retention issues become different in electronic environment – both paper and electronic health records need to be effectively managed Understanding the importance of IG Shared electronic records – will become the norm, with challenges in relation to data controllership, maintaining data quality and the integrity of the record (Royal College of General Practitioners Guidance)

  17. NIGB Future model - practicalities (2) • Managing and sharing patient and service user identifiable information for secondary uses – challenges of implementing individual’s wishes • Pressure to make efficiencies through increased use of electronic communication – how to ensure IG adequate and difficulties of doing so in a resource constrained environment • Online patient access can reduce patient demands and increase satisfaction • Telemedicine – useful for some groups / locations • Increased risk from more people with access but also harm from not sharing NATIONAL INFORMATION GOVERNANCE BOARD

  18. NIGB Future model – assurance and controls NATIONAL INFORMATION GOVERNANCE BOARD Managing robust access controls where multiple agencies staff need access understanding that “sharing” is “disclosure” Sharing across health & social care – consent and appropriate controls in place to ensure patient / citizen interests are protected Collaboration & engagement Strong IG standards - need to be embedded Use of the Care Record Guarantee – uptake of organisations in health & social care has been varied – future of the CRG?

  19. NIGB Future model –enabling patient access to their records NATIONAL INFORMATION GOVERNANCE BOARD Clinician willingness Information about other individuals or provided by other individuals in the record Handling seriously harmful information and when to consider that the potential for serious harm has passed What patients value most is the transactional aspects – booking appointments, requesting repeat prescriptions, getting test results, messaging the GP. Important to do this in a stepped way, perhaps starting with the transactional aspects
