Health Informatics - Classification of purposes for processing personal health information (ISO/TS 14265:2011)

ISO/TS 14265:2011 defines a set of high-level categories of purposes for which personal health information can be processed. This is in order to provide a framework for classifying the various specific purposes that can be defined and used by individual policy domains (e.g. healthcare organizations, regional health authorities, jurisdictions, countries) as an aid to the consistent management of information in the delivery of health care services and for the communication of electronic health records across organizational and jurisdictional boundaries.  
The scope of application of ISO/TS 14265:2011 is limited to Personal Health Information as defined in ISO 27799, information about an identifiable person that relates to the physical or mental health of the individual, or to provision of health services to the individual.

Medizinische Informatik - Klassifikation des Zwecks zur Verarbeitung von persönlichen Gesundheitsinformationen (ISO/TS 14265:2011)

Diese Technische Spezifikation legt eine Reihe von Kategorien höchster Ebene für die Zwecke fest, für die persönliche Gesundheitsinformationen verarbeitet, d. h. erfasst, genutzt, gespeichert, abgefragt, ausgewertet, erstellt, verknüpft, übermittelt, offengelegt oder aufbewahrt werden dürfen. Ihr Ziel ist, ein Rahmenwerk für die Klassifikation der verschiedenen speziellen Zwecke zur Verfügung zu stellen, die in den Geltungsbereichen der einzelnen Richtlinien festgelegt und angewendet werden können (z. B. von Organisationen der Gesund-heitsversorgung, regionalen Gesundheitsbehörden, Zuständigkeitsbereichen, Ländern), um die gleichblei-bende Verwaltung der Informationen bei der Erbringung von Dienstleistungen im Gesundheitswesen und für die Übermittlung elektronischer Patientenakten über die Grenzen von Organisationen und Zuständigkeits-bereichen hinweg zu unterstützen. Der Anwendungsbereich dieser Technischen Spezifikation ist beschränkt auf persönliche Gesundheitsinfor-mationen (en: Personal Health Information, PHI) nach der Definition in ISO 27799 und auf Informationen über eine identifizierbare Person, die sich auf deren körperliche oder geistige Gesundheit oder die Erbringung von Gesundheitsdienstleistungen für diese Person beziehen. Zu diesen Informationen können die folgenden gehö-ren:
- Informationen über die Registrierung der Person für die Erbringung von Gesundheitsdienstleistungen;
- Informationen über Zahlungen oder die Anspruchsberechtigung der betreffenden Person für Gesund-heitsmaßnahmen;
- Zahlen, Symbole oder spezielle Codes, die der betreffenden Person zugeordnet sind, um diese für Gesundheitszwecke eindeutig zu identifizieren;
- alle Informationen über die Person, die im Verlauf der Erbringung von Gesundheitsdienstleistungen für diese Person erfasst werden;
- Informationen, die aus der Untersuchung eines Körperteils oder einer biologischen Probe abgeleitet wurden;  Identifikation einer Person, z. B. eines Heilberuflers, als Erbringer von Gesundheitsdienstleistungen der betreffenden Person gegenüber. Die vorliegende Technische Spezifikation legt zwar nicht die Gesamtheit derartiger Zwecke fest, stellt aber ein gemeinsames Abbildungsziel zur Überbrückung der Kluft zwischen den unterschiedlichen nationalen Listen zur Verfügung mit dem Ziel, die genehmigten automatisierten grenzüberschreitenden Ströme von elektroni-schen Patientenaktendaten zu unterstützen. Ziel dieser Technischen Spezifikation ist nicht, die Nutzung von nicht personenbezogenen Gesundheitsinfor-mationen zu reglementieren. Da jedoch die Anonymisierung oder Entpersonalisierung von Daten eine Bedin-gung für die weitere Nutzung oder für neue Verwendungszwecke sein kann, kann ein festgelegter Daten-zweck für die Nutzung sogar entpersonalisierter oder anonymisierter Daten nach der Richtlinie oder dem Gesetz eines bestimmten Zuständigkeitsbereiches gefordert sein. Unwiderruflich entpersonalisierte Gesundheitsdaten fallen formell nicht in den Anwendungsbereich dieser Technischen Spezifikation. Da die Entpersonalisierungsprozesse jedoch häufig ein gewisses Maß an Umkehr-barkeit einschließen, kann sie, wann immer zweckmäßig, auch für die Offenlegung von entpersonalisierten Gesundheitsdaten herangezogen werden.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
In other circumstances, particularly when there is an urgent market requirement for such documents, a
technical committee may decide to publish other types of normative document:
 an ISO Publicly Available Specification (ISO/PAS) represents an agreement between technical experts in
an ISO working group and is accepted for publication if it is approved by more than 50 % of the members
of the parent committee casting a vote;
 an ISO Technical Specification (ISO/TS) represents an agreement between the members of a technical
committee and is accepted for publication if it is approved by 2/3 of the members of the committee casting
a vote.
An ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is reviewed after three years in order to decide whether it will be confirmed for a
further three years, revised to become an International Standard, or withdrawn. If the ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is
confirmed, it is reviewed again after a further three years, at which time it must either be transformed into an
International Standard or be withdrawn.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

0 Introduction
0.1 Rationale
A fundamental principle underlying the use of personal health data is that it is essential to know the purposes
for which data was originally collected and that all subsequent processing activities be the same as, or
consistent with, the original purpose. This principle, when applied in conjunction with a standardized list of
purposes, forms the foundation for a correspondence of permitted purpose between different users, systems,
organizations or policy domains who might need to share personal health information.
Interoperability standards, and their progressive adoption by e-health programmes, are expanding the
capacity for organizations to exchange health data. For this to occur on a wide scale, the majority of decisions
regarding requests for health data will need to take place automatically. In order that data processing activities
(collection, storage, access, analysis, linkage, communication, disclosure and retention) are appropriate, it is
important that policies are defined in fully computable ways that are themselves interoperable. Interoperable
policies will enable requests between heterogeneous systems and services to be evaluated consistently. In
order for automatic processing policies to be defined and operationalized, it is important that governance
structures, processes and rules are applied to the design of information and information technology at an
enterprise or inter-enterprise level through a number of administrative mechanisms. These mechanisms
include enterprise architecture/frameworks, standards, strategy, procedures, laws, regulations, principles and
policy, and include operational controls such as committees, budgets, plans, and responsibility agreements
(e.g. information sharing agreements, service level agreements and contracts). It is recognized that not all
disclosures will take place automatically, and that individual (human) decisions will at times be made, taking
policies and governance arrangements into account.
For ethical and legal reasons, it is normally the case that information is used only for the purpose for which it
was collected or created. This purpose can be specified explicitly and consented to. Consent to use data for a
particular purpose can also be implied, although it is almost always a requirement that the purposes be
declared.
Where data are intended for further and different purposes, a new purpose can require a new consent. For
example, in some jurisdictions, data collected for health care cannot automatically be used for research, nor
information collected for research used for care, without obtaining new consent. Knowing the purpose for
which access to information is intended is essential in order to determine if access to data for processing
activities are appropriate.
Increasingly, this problem has become not only one of determining that a user has permission to access
particular items of information but also that the user has permission to use them for a specified purpose. It is
therefore essential to ensure that the context within which access and use is asserted is the correct one.
Purpose (or use, purpose of use, or context of use) when clearly defined, helps to ensure that access to
protected information items is granted to properly authorized users under a specific, appropriate and
unambiguous policy. The explicit declaration of intended purpose prior to being granted access also helps to
ensure that users understand that such access does not imply that use is also permitted for other undeclared,
inconsistent purposes. Purpose of use helps bring clarity to situations where there are multiple and potentially
conflicting contextually sensitive policies for identical users' access to identical information items.
0.2 Background
ISO/TS 22600-1 defines a generic architectural approach for policy services, and a generic framework for
defining policies in a formal way. However, like any generic architecture, a structural framework to support
policy interoperability has to be instantiated for use. A policy domain needs also to specify which information
properties they wish to take into account when making processing decisions. They need to specify a high level
policy model containing those properties, to which all instances
