“Talks to package millions of British medical records into a vast, commercially valuable database that may then be sold on are already underway between NHS England bosses and global giants, documents exclusively obtained by The Register show.

Last month, a cache of leaked files emerged into public view, detailing post-Brexit trade negotiations between Britain and the United States in which access to the UK’s national health service was said to be on the table.

Now, hush-hush files and presentation slides seen this week by The Register reveal discussions are already in progress over the future use of patients’ personal records and related information, said to be valued at roughly £10bn a year.

NHS England’s top brass met big tech and pharma executives at an invite-only event in October this year to discuss collecting patient data to improve healthcare services, fund this whole data-management project, and potentially even profit from it. This record-organizing programme includes the creation of a “single, standardised, event-based, longitudinal patient record” repository for as many as 65 million Brits. Basically, everything you can imagine collected, cleaned up, curated, and searchable, in one place….”

So, what’s in it? Everything

“…The proposed medical record repository will pull together information from GPs and hospitals, mental health professionals, death and demographics registers, information from the private healthcare sector, prescription records, and environmental and social statistics, as well as data flows from embedded medical devices and patient-supplied and entered details.

NHS Digital said in an “opportunity overview” document, seen by The Register, that it has the “foundations” to create an England-wide “single, national, standardised, event-based longitudinal record for 65 million citizens within two years,” that as well as being vital for “effective, efficient and safe patient care,” will service the “delivery data and insights to medical research organisations in the NHS, academia and Life Services.”

Capturing the “full journey of care from cradle to grave,” the gigantic central database’s “records can be continuously updated with event information, and their scope/coverage can be continuously enhanced with structured and unstructured data from across the systems and outside it (e.g. wearables, social, geo-spatial, etc).”

The process of integration has already begun through various local, regional, and national initiatives, including Shared Care Records, Local Health and Care Record Exemplars, and NHS Digital’s data collections – for example, its Hospital Episode Statistics. Disease registers, clinical audits, and the 100,000 Genomes Project were said to have “created valuable data collections” for the central repository. Now, a focus will be on bringing it all together

“In their rush to capitalise on one of the most valuable data assets on the planet, those in charge seem more eager to attract investment, serve industry and promote trade than to ask – or even tell – the patients whose medical histories they’re looking to commercialise what it is they are planning to do….”

 KEY PARAGRAPHS

  1. Alternatively, the health service gets a stake in the company in “exchange for access to the data,” or the health service takes a “share of the profits, from a product developed using NHS data.”
  2. As for the proposed “monetary benefits models,” the NHS would receive a “guaranteed upfront fee for access to the data,” or alternatively a discount on “any product developed from the collaboration,” or it “agrees of ‘royalty fee’ for the use of data or IP, thereby creating an income stream.”
  3. . It also highlighted the $250m spent in Israel to create a health database covering its nine million citizens for “research and business use.” 
  4. The final phase, defined as “support services for research,” includes the deployment of “sophisticated consent management systems” – perhaps an unusual order in which to be considering fundamental trustworthiness and legal compliance.
