Health information is, by its very nature highly sensitive information. Both
the Privacy Act 1993 and the Health Information Privacy Code impose obligations
on health organisations in the way they collect, store, manage and disclose health
information.
Failure to deal appropriately with those obligations can result in complaints
and, in the worst case, legal proceedings. These are costly and time-consuming
to deal with and raise real risks to the reputation of your organisation.
Presented in plain English, salt Health Information Privacy ensures that your
staff
are trained in the fundamental principles of health
information law relevant to them and to you. salt Health
Information Privacy also ensures that you can have confidence in the ability of
your staff to deal with health information and to manage your risks.
