3.2
health data
personal health data and health related electronic data obtained from processing of personal health data

Example: Overall analysis results, trend prediction, disease prevention and control statistics of a group obtained from processing of group health data.

3.3
health service professional
persons authorized by the government or industry organization to be qualified to perform specific health care duties

Example: Organizations, medical insurance institutions, government agencies, healthcare scientific research institutions, individual clinics, etc. that provide health services.

3.6
health information system
system that collects, stores, processes, transmits, accesses, and destroys health data in a computer-processable form


3.7
limited data set
personal health data set that has been partially de-identified but still identifies the corresponding individual and therefore needs to be protected

Example: Health data from which identifications directly related to individuals and their families, family members, and employers are removed.

Note: Limited data set may be used for the purposes of scientific research, medical/health education and public health without the authorization of the individual concerned.

3.8
notes of treatment
observations, reflections, program discussions and conclusions recorded by health service professionals in the course of providing health services

Note: Notes of treatment have the attribute of intellectual property rights and their intellectual property rights belong to health service professionals and/or their units.

3.9
disclosure
act of transferring and sharing health data to specific individuals or organizations, as well as publicly releasing health data to unspecified individuals, organizations or society

3.10
clinical research
scientific research activities aimed at exploring the causes, prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of diseases, initiated by medical institutions, academic research institutions, and/or healthcare-related enterprises, with patients or healthy individuals as research subjects

Note: Clinical research is a branch of medical research.

3.11
completely public sharing
release of data, usually release of data directly to the public via the Internet, with data being difficult to recall once after being released

[GB/T 37964-2019, Definition 3.12]

3.12
controlled public sharing
constraining the use of data through data use agreement
