Initial Consultation – Confidentiality: Protecting and providing information (14th January 2008)
The GMC is holding an initial consultation on its guidance to doctors on confidentiality. This consultation is the first step in a review of the GMC’s current guidance, ‘Confidentiality: Protecting and providing information’, which was published in 2004. The guidance consists of a booklet of high level principles of good practice and a supplementary booklet of Frequently Asked Questions. A working group, chaired by Dr Henrietta Campbell, the former Chief Medical Officer for Northern Ireland, has been established to oversee a thorough review of the guidance. This working group is issuing a call for individuals and groups, whether professional, public or patient oriented, as well as employers and others with an interest, to answer a set of questions to clarify views about the existing guidance and to identify (by way of examples) where the biggest challenges exist for doctors in balancing respect for patients against the benefits of information sharing. Closing date for comments is 29th February 2008.
