Charlotte Tschider on Consent & Choice in Health Data

In this episode, Charlotte Tschider, Jaharis Faculty Fellow in Health Law and Intellectual Property at DePaul University College of Law, discusses her article "The Consent Myth: Improving Choice for Patients of the Future," which will appear in the Washington University Law Review. Tschider briefly describes the history of data privacy regulation and how the current regulatory regime struggles to account for new technologies that collect and process massive amounts of data. She explains why the concept of "consent" cannot fully account for patient expectations relating to data privacy, and should be replaced by an expectation of "choice." She closes by outlining a set of principles we should consider when creating data privacy policy. Tschider is on Twitter at @cybersimplesec. Hosted on Acast.
