Abstract:
With the rapid development of " Internet+ healthcare" , medical data has gained an ever important role. How to determine the reasonable use boundary of medical data and leverage its supporting role, has grown an urgent problem to be solved. The authors analyzed the characteristics of medical data, and held that medical data is not equivalent to information, as it does not have the characteristics of legal objects in nature. In addition, it lacks originality. Therefore it is difficult to protect through the existing rights system. However, due to its property interest and personality, the authors tried to establish a new right for protection. In the construction of such medical data right, the authors claimed that patients should be the subject of the right, and medical institutions can appropriately restrict the freedom of patients′ through reasonable use rules and legal licensing system. In this way, we can not only promote medical data sharing and the development of social health, but also fully protect the legitimate rights and interests of patients.
