UK government set to extract hospital data to Palantir system without patient consent
The UK government is set to extract patient-identifiable data from NHS hospital systems and share this with its data platform based on technology from Palantir, a move that seems set to provoke another legal challenge.
The move is an expansion of NHS England's use of Palantir, which had been subject to the threat of a judicial review in 2021. Under legal pressure,and agreed not to extend Palantir's contract beyond the pandemic without consulting the public. In the board papers, NHS England directs NHS Digital to use Foundry, a Palantir product for the collection.
NHS England said that patients would not be allowed to block the transfer of their data under the National Data Opt-outs programme since the data was due to be"anonymized in accordance with the Information Commissioner Office's Anonymisation Code of Practice before being released."
