The World Privacy Forum – A Legal and Policy Analysis – Personal Health Records: Why Many PHRs Threaten Privacy, Prepared by Robert Gellman for the World Privacy Forum, February 20, 2008

“This document offers a legal and policy analysis of the privacy consequences for consumer health information stored on or by Personal Health Records systems that are not subject to the HIPAA health privacy rule. This document does not analyze the potential of PHRs for affecting the cost of health care in general. Unless specifically noted in the text, the term PHR in this document refers to PHR records and systems that are not subject to HIPAA.”

BeSpacific: “No one better has her finger on the pulse of the legal information world than Sabrina Pacifici, law librarian and author of the blog BeSpacific,” writes blogger Robert Ambrogi. “Launched in 2002, BeSpacific is one of the longest-running legal blogs and, remarkably, Sabrina seems more prolific today than ever. She posts multiple items every day, covering the gamut of law, technology and knowledge discovery and topics ranging from cybersecurity to legal research to government regulation to civil liberties to IP and more. For me, BeSpacific is one of my daily must-reads and has been for 14 years straight.”
