Definition
From:
NHS England Transformation Directorate: Information Governance Framework for Integrated Health and Care: Shared Care Records (Sep 2021)
The UK GDPR principle of accountability requires that organisations must be able to demonstrate compliance. Part of this involves transparency and the provision of information to subjects – previously referred to as fair processing.
A specific requirement of the UK GDPR is that organisations must include their lawful basis for processing information provided to patients, service users and staff.
