Abstract

Information Technology-supported Heathcare (eHealth) is crucial in order to reduce healthcare costs, and improve quality of care and patient safety. Among technologies in eHealth, Electronic Medical/Health Records (EMR/EHR) enabling communication of patient data between different healthcare professionals (e.g. specialists, pharmacy), is the most important and sensitive. There are three crucial requirements when accessing EMRs: such access must be both secure and privacy preserving; such access must be allowed to individuals from different organizations; such access should be confined based on meta information about the EMRs. In this paper, we propose a multi-domain privacy-aware role based access control meeting these requirements.

Keywords: Privacy Multi-Domain P-RBAC Data Profile.
