Abstract

|
|
In the midst of the flood of private and public information, the huge amount of information is a key resource in the age of the 4th industrial revolution, represented by big data. Interest in these is growing worldwide. There is an active discussion about how to backup and accumulate data and how to use the collected data safely and effectively. Above all, health data is valued as the most valuable resource for which big data technology is used. To make good use of health data, distributed health data must be integrated and made available to users in a form that can be used for research or inspection.
In a situation in which large countries are competing for the establishment or management of the data economy, the so-called "3 data laws", which contain the PERSONAL INFORMATION PROTECTION ACT(PIPA)), were also changed in South Korea in August 2020.
The PIPA introduced the concept of pseudonymous information and established a legal basis for its use. As a follow-up action, the 'Personal Information Protection Commission (PIPC)' announced the 'Guidelines for Handling Pseudonymous Information' and 'Ministry of Health and Welfare' announced the 'Guidelines for the Use of Health Data'.
Health data are directly related to human life and body and therefore contain a lot of sensitive data. So it is a system that can be used from a more cautious and conservative point of view, provided that personal data is more securely protected.
In order to analyze the main content of the “Guidelines for the Use of Health Data”, we first checked the main content of the revised DSG. Afterwards, by analyzing the essential contents of the “Guidelines for Use of Health Data”, problems such as conflicts with other laws and improvement measures were checked.
