-This wiki aims to discuss privacy issues in health research and to propose specific ​research-related implementing rules and regulations (IRR) for {{::​joint_ao_2016-0002_privacy_guidelines_for_the_implementation_of_phie.pdf|the Privacy Guidelines}} (based on [[http://​www.gov.ph/​2012/​08/​15/​republic-act-no-10173/​|RA 10173]]). The main IRR-drafting exercise for the Guidelines is done [[:​consolidated_workshop_outputs|here]]. ​ While the immediate application of the exercise is limited to the Philippine Health Information Exchange (PHIE), the rules crafted here may have an impact on health research in the Philippines in general. In a parallel development,​ the National Privacy Commission (NPC) has just been constituted. You may also consider engaging the Commission directly on special issues in research privacy. \\+This wiki aims to discuss privacy issues in health research and to propose specific ​**Privacy Code** ​for {{::​joint_ao_2016-0002_privacy_guidelines_for_the_implementation_of_phie.pdf|the Privacy Guidelines}} (based on [[http://​www.gov.ph/​2012/​08/​15/​republic-act-no-10173/​|RA 10173]]).

   * Section 4(d) appears to provide a global "​non-applicability"​ for research. But that doesn'​t sit well with the above provisions that are clearly about limited exception. ​ Having a blanket exception does not necessarily help research because that will mean having a research regime incompatible at least with its North American and EU counterparts that extend privacy protection to research and data subjects alike. That can mean, in part, being excluded from multi-country research projects. There'​s also the risk of databases just being arbitrarily labelled as part of "​research"​ in order to avoid privacy regulations. \\   * Section 4(d) appears to provide a global "​non-applicability"​ for research.
