Summary/Abstract: The problem of the use and protection of personal data in health care is particularly sensitive in the context of creating, storing and accessing the patient’s health file within electronic systems. Disclosure of information from the medical record, including in circumstances affecting the interests of other people is another aspect of the use of personal data. Problems of technological data protection are often intertwined with moral – ethical ones related to protection and the public interest. The case of Colak and Tsakiridis v. Germany is indicative of this. The goals and objectives of the publication are to review the state and regulation of access, the control and the legal framework for the protection of personal information contained in the electronic health record as an essential part of the eHealth system.
