Is it legal?• Legal aspects of health data:– Sensitive information is defined in

”Personopplysningsloven”– The potential link to a person is critical

Online advice vs consultation• ”Helsehjelp” vs ”Helserådgivning, opplysning”• Helsepersonelloven:

”Med helsehjelp menes enhver handling som har forebyggende, diagnostisk, behandlende, helsebevarende, rehabiliterende eller pleie- og omsorgsformål og som utføres av helsepersonell. ”   

Online advice vs consultation• Advice (100% legal):– General information, valid for a group of people

• Traditional consultation (legal?):– Individualised approach based on personal information – Person is asked to do something (or not to do it)

Some advice– Learn, learn and learn– Know what ”sensitive opplysninger” means– ”Helsehjelp” and ”Helseopplysning” are not the same– Give useful links to your patient… disapointed patients

give bad ratings– Social media is not witchcraft (but it can be)
