Princess Kate Middleton could take legal action after her private medical records were involved in a security breach at The London Clinic.
The London Clinic launched an investigation into its employees after members of the hospital reportedly tried to access Kate’s private medical records following her January abdominal procedure, the Daily Mail reported on Tuesday, March 19. The outlet noted that the investigation began after one staffer attempted to access the princess’ file without permission.“It’s pretty clear right now whenever you access a file or a site, who's doing so,” he said.
“Obviously a doctor or a nurse or a medical professional, they would be licensed, and there'd be a body that regulates them. So, there could be some administrative penalty,” he said. “They could be suspended or even lose their license entirely. “ “Everyone at The London Clinic is acutely aware of our individual, professional, ethical and legal duties with regards to patient confidentiality,” he said, noting that the hospital has “systems in place to monitor management of patient information and, in the case of any breach, all appropriate investigatory, regulatory and disciplinary steps will be taken.”
