Luo Xiang: Zhou Haimei's medical records were leaked to a maximum of 7 years.
Recently, the incident about Zhou Haimei's medical records being leaked by hospital personnel has attracted widespread attention. One of the concerns of the public in this case is the legal liability of the person who leaked the medical records. In response to this problem, host Luo Xiang released his views on the program on December 13.
In his commentary, Luo Xiang noted that under China's Criminal Law, anyone who intentionally divulges a patient's medical records can be sentenced to up to seven years in prison. This means that if the investigation confirms that someone deliberately leaked Zhou Haimei's medical records, she will face serious legal consequences.
The leakage of medical records is a serious offense that involves the privacy of individuals and the trust of medical institutions. Medical records contain sensitive information such as the patient's physical condition, medical history, diagnosis, and **, which should be kept strictly confidential by medical personnel. Healthcare facilities also have a responsibility to take steps to ensure the privacy of their patients. Once the medical records are leaked, it not only violates the legitimate rights and interests of patients, but also has a serious impact on the credibility of the medical system.
The law has clearly penalized the leakage of medical records. According to article 253 of the Criminal Law, anyone who interferes with the normal operation of a computer information system, tampers with, deletes, adds to or interferes with the functional setting of a computer information system, or assaults or destroys a computer information system, causing serious consequences, shall be sentenced to up to seven years' imprisonment and a fine. This provision also applies to the intentional disclosure of medical records, since the leaker may have committed the illegal act by illegally accessing or tampering with the medical records in a computer information system.
Medical record breaches not only hurt patients themselves, but also negatively impacted the reputation and public trust of the entire medical industry. Therefore, all sectors of society should attach great importance to the leakage of medical records, support relevant departments to seriously investigate and strengthen relevant supervision work.
In addition, while the public is concerned about the leakage of medical records, they should not ignore the security and privacy protection of personal information. It is necessary to strengthen the awareness of the protection of sensitive personal information, avoid arbitrarily leaking personal information to untrustworthy third parties, and choose trusted platforms and channels when using and storing personal information.
Overall, in his commentary, Luo Xiang highlighted the legal liability faced by those who leaked medical records, and made it clear that under the Criminal Code, those who intentionally leak patients' medical records can be sentenced to up to seven years in prison. This perspective reminds the public and medical staff of the seriousness of medical record breaches, and underscores the importance of protecting the privacy of individuals and the trust of medical institutions.
This incident has also sparked a broader discussion about the security and privacy protection of personal information. Everyone should strengthen the awareness of the protection of sensitive personal information and take measures to avoid the leakage and misuse of personal information. This is not only an individual responsibility, but also a social and legal requirement.
In the face of the leakage of medical records, we should pay attention to and support the relevant departments to seriously deal with and supervise such illegal acts. By strengthening legal sanctions and supervision, we can better protect the rights and interests of patients and maintain the credibility and healthy development of the medical industry.
In the era of advanced information technology, the protection of personal privacy and information security is an important issue. We should take a more serious approach to the handling and dissemination of personal information to ensure that everyone's privacy is respected and protected.
Finally, let us work together to build a more secure and credible information environment, protect the security and privacy of individual information, and create a fair, transparent and orderly social environment. In this way, we can progress together and achieve a better future.
