Kate’s Hospital Data Breach Under Investigation
Kate’s Hospital Data Breach Under Investigation
It’s been reported that staff at the London Clinic may have attempted to access Princess Kate’s private medical records.
Catherine, the Princess of Wales, underwent abdominal surgery at the London Clinic in January. Her Royal Highness spent almost two weeks in the hospital recovering after the surgery.
An internal investigation has apparently been launched by the hospital, where King Charles also recently received treatment. The UK’s data watchdog, the Information Commissioners’ Office (ICO), has also now become involved. In a statement, the ICO confirmed that it was assessing a report of a possible privacy breach.
Al Russell Chief Executive of the London Clinic said in a statement all his employees were ‘actually aware” of their individual, professional, ethical and legal duties with regards to patient confidentiality.
The London clinic said it had “no place” for those intentionally breaching the trust of patients or colleagues.
Princess Kate is currently the subject of speculation and conspiracy theories following her temporary withdrawal from public life. But Kensington Palace has been clear from the outset that Kate’s recovery would probably take until Easter. And Her Royal Highness appeared happy and healthy while visiting a farm shop with Prince William on Saturday.
Kensington Palace has not yet commented on the reported hospital data breach attempt.
