Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The hospital in A can send the data directly to hospital B, as requested by the patient. Correct. The right to portability allows this. (Literature: A, Chapter 3)

The hospital in A can send the file to hospital B, before the patient has requested it. Incorrect. The hospital in B can only acquire the file from A with consent or if it is in the vital interest of the data subject and consent cannot be obtained.

The hospital in A can send the medical file to the data subject, but not to another hospital. Incorrect. The data subject can ask for the data to be sent directly.

The hospital in A cannot send the file, because there is no legitimate ground for processing. Incorrect. A request, which implies consent, of the data subject is a sufficient legitimate ground.

That makes sense, because the patient is actively requesting for the data to be transferred to hospital B.

I believe in that case, the hospital in city A can still send the data directly to hospital B, as requested by the patient.

But what if the patient has opted out of the national electronic patients file system?

I think the hospital in city A can send the medical file directly to hospital B if the patient requests it.
