Former health worker tried to sell Princess Kate's medical records

A former healthcare worker received a warning from the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) over an attempt to obtain and sell medical records of Princess Kate. The ICO launched a criminal investigation in March 2024 after a report that a staff member at a London clinic tried to access the princess's notes during her stay for abdominal surgery earlier that year. A spokesperson for the private hospital stated that their cooperation with the ICO has resolved this unfortunate and isolated incident, adding there were no regulatory violations by the hospital.

Bivši zdravstveni radnik dobio je upozorenje Kancelarije poverenika za informacije zbog pokušaja da pribavi i proda medicinsku dokumentaciju Ketrin, princeze od Velsa.

Kancelarija je pokrenula krivičnu istragu u martu 2024. godine, nakon prijave da je jedan član osoblja Londonske klinike pokušao da pristupi beleškama princeze dok je bila pacijentkinja te ustanove radi operacije abdomena ranije te godine, piše BBC .

Portparol privatne bolnice izjavio je: „Drago nam je što je naš rad sa ICO-om priveo kraju ovaj tužan i izolovan incident. Nije bilo regulatornih prekršaja od strane bolnice.“

ICO je saopštio da je upozorenje bilo „primeren i proporcionalan odgovor u sprovođenju zakona“.

Ovo telo za zaštitu privatnosti i podataka navelo je da je došlo do „namernog zloupotrebljavanja veoma osetljivih ličnih informacija i ponude da one budu otkrivene radi finansijske koristi“.

Dodali su da njihova istraga nije pronašla nikakve dokaze o „širim organizacionim problemima koji proizlaze iz pružanja zdravstvene zaštite u ovom slučaju“.

Izvršni direktor ICO-a za regulatorni nadzor, Ijan Halm, rekao je: „Ljudi treba da mogu da veruju da su lične informacije koje daju zdravstvenim ustanovama bezbedne i zaštićene od zloupotrebe. Kada se to poverenje naruši, ispravno je da nam zakon omogućava da preduzmemo mere.“

Londonska klinika, koja se nalazi u blizini Ridžents parka u centru Londona, za sebe kaže da je najveća nezavisna privatna bolnica u Ujedinjenom Kraljevstvu i da je često koriste članovi kraljevske porodice.

Ketrin je u januaru 2024. godine u toj bolnici operisala abdomen i povukla se iz javnih dužnosti tokom oporavka.

Dva meseca kasnije otkrila je da prima terapiju protiv raka.

Princeza je početkom 2025. godine potvrdila da je rak u remisiji i postepeno se vratila većem broju javnih događaja nakon završetka lečenja, podseća BBC .
