Zikhuseleke kangakanani iiRekhodi zakho zonyango lwe-Electronic?

Umxholo

• Uphengululo lwe

Zininzi izinto onokuzisebenzisa xa usiya kwidijithali xa kuziwa kwimpilo yakho. Ngapha koko, iipesenti ezingama-56 zoogqirha abasebenzisa iirekhodi zonyango zombane babonelela ngononophelo olungcono kunolo basebenzisa iirekhodi zephepha, ngokophando Ijenali yeGeneral Internal Medicine. Kwaye iirekhodi zedijithali zikunika ulawulo ngakumbi njengesigulana: Iiapps ezinje ngeMpilo yeApple, iApp yam yoNyango, okanye uGqirha oGqirha gcina iithebhu kwiimedali zakho, amadinga, kunye novavanyo lwegazi, kunye nokulala kwakho, ukutya, kunye nokuzilolonga.

Kodwa unokufuna ukulumkela into oyikhangela kwi-Intanethi: Ukukhangela ezinye iiwebhusayithi kubeka imfihlo yempilo yakho emngciphekweni, lumkisa abaphandi kwiYunivesithi yaseAnnenberg School of Communication. Ukuphononongwa kwabo kwiiwebhusayithi zezempilo ze-80,000 kubonise ukuba i-9 kwi-10 ukutyelela kula maphepha kubangele ukuba ulwazi lwezonyango lomntu siqu lwabelwane ngamaqela esithathu njengabakhangisi kunye nabaqokeleli bedatha.

Ubeka njani iDatha yakho yezeMpilo emngciphekweni

Ukukhathazeka ngaphezu kwazo zonke izinto onokuthi uzibambe kuzo kwi-hypochondria? Nathi Nantsi into enokuthethwa yile datha: Ukuba uyi-WebMDing izifo ezithile-yithi isifo seswekile okanye umhlaza wamabele-igama lakho linokunxulumana nophando lwakho kwindawo yogcino lwedatha yeenkampani eziphantsi kwemithetho embalwa. “Ezi nkampani zaziwa njenge ‘data brokers’ zingathengisa le datha kuye nabani na onemali yokuyithenga,” utshilo uTim Libert, ongumfundi kagqirha nomphandi ophambili kweli phulo. "Akukho mithetho yokwenyani ekukhuseleni le datha, ke ithuba lokuba amasela ayifumane inyuka ngakumbi kwiinkampani eziyiqokelelayo."

Ngaba ikhona into ekhuselekileyo?

"Naliphi na ixesha idatha igcinwe kwikhompyuter edityaniswe kwi-Intanethi kukho umngcipheko-emva kwayo yonke loo nto, baninzi abophuli-mthetho phaya abenza imali ngokuba izazisi," utshilo uLibert. "Nangona kunjalo, idatha egutyungelwe ngumthetho we-Inshurensi yezeMpilo yokuPhatheka kunye noXanduva lokuPhendula ngo-1996 (i-HIPAA), ebandakanya iirekhodi zonyango ezivela kwiofisi yoogqirha nakwinkampani yeinshurensi, iyacelwa ukuba isebenzise ukhuselo olomeleleyo ukugcina abagxeki bengaphandle. Ngokwahlukileyo, idatha eqokelelwe kwiwebhu Izikhangeli zabathengisi abanjengoGoogle kunye nabathengisi beenkcukacha abekho ngaphandle komthetho. Kufuneka sizithembe ezi nkampani ukuba zenze umsebenzi olungileyo. " Ngelishwa, akukho nemimiselo ye-HIPAA ibonakala yanele ukugcina abahlaseli ngaphandle. Kwinyanga nje edlulileyo, iinkampani ezimbini eziphambili zonyango ziye zaxela ukophulwa kwedatha eziveze iirekhodi zonyango zamashumi ezigidi zabathengi.

Ngoba? I-HIPAA ayichazi ngokuthe ngqo itekhnoloji efunekayo ukukhusela. Ngokukhawuleza ukujoyina iminyaka yedijithali (urhulumente wobumbano ubonelela ngenkuthazo yemali ngokwenza oko), izibhedlele kunye noogqirha ngamanye amaxesha basebenzisa isoftware yokukhusela engonelanga, ukudala iingxaki ezingaphezulu kunokuba isombulula, utshilo uScot M. Silverstein, MD, umbhali we Inguqulelo yohlaziyo lwezeMpilo ibhlog. "Ngelixa iinkqubo zekhompyuter ezisetyenziswa ngamanye amacandelo afana neshishini lokuxuba amayeza kufuneka zivavanywe ngokungqongqo phantsi kolawulo lukaRhulumente ngaphambi kokuba zisetyenziswe, ayikho into enje ngezi rekhodi zempilo ze-elektroniki," utshilo uSilverstein. "Kubalulekile ukuseka ukongamela okunentsingiselo kwishishini ukuqinisekisa ukuba sisebenzisa isoftware esemgangathweni ekhuselekileyo nesebenzayo."

Kude kube ngoko, thatha impilo yakho uyibuyisele ezandleni zakho. (I-intanethi ayikuphela kwendawo apho ubumfihlo bempilo yakho buyinto exhalabisayo. Lungakanani ulwazi lwezempilo ofanele ulutyhile emsebenzini?)

1. Khuphela izongezo zebrawuza.

Ide inkongolo ithathe amanyathelo okuqinisekisa ukuba imithetho yabucala yezempilo efana ne-HIPAA igubungela zonke iinkcukacha zempilo kwiwebhu, thintela ulwazi lwakho ekwabelwaneni namaqela esithathu ngelixa undwendwela iwebhusayithi yezempilo. Zama izongezo zebrawuza. "I-Ghostery kunye ne-Adblock Plus zisebenza ngokufanelekileyo kwaye zinokuvimba ezinye, kodwa ayizizo zonke, zeetracker ezifihliweyo eziqokelela idatha yomsebenzisi," utshilo uLibert.

2. Libala iWi-Fi yoluntu.

"Ivenkile yakho yekofu asiyondawo yokwenza izinto ezibuthathaka kwikhompyuter yakho," ulumkisa uLibert. "Ezi intanethi zivulekileyo azifuni ziphasiwedi, ezinokuthi zenze indawo yokungena lula kubageki."

3. Ukuphonononga iirekhodi ze-doc yakho.

"Ngena kwi-akhawunti yakho rhoqo, ngakumbi emva okanye ngaphambi kokutyelela ugqirha, ukuqinisekisa ukuba yonke ingcaciso ugqirha wakho anayo kwifayile yakho ichanekile ngokupheleleyo," kusho uSilverstein.
