DPDP Act and its Impact on Healthcare

The Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act 2023 creates a legal framework for the secured use of personal digital data to eliminate abuse. However, the Act’s provisions appear to have been drafted primarily with the e-commerce websites, personal data-based applications, and other digital customers in mind, not the healthcare community. Healthcare in the digital era requires communicating sensitive patient information over the web with clinicians for responsive advice and consultation. The consequences of such data-sharing involving medical personnel are not clear. Besides, the growth of digital health technologies requires patient data to be accessible anonymously and in de-identified form. Elimination of personal information alone does not guarantee de-identification. Also, to what specific detail one must describe the intended use of data for research and technology development is not articulated. Thus, the gray areas in the Act pose a challenge for the Indian medical ecosystem, which could incur penalties under the DPDP Act 2023.

Data Driven Development

“Accurate data is the lifeblood of good policies and decision making”

As nations and organisations strive to solve social problems around the world, the lack of accurate data has often been cited as a primary reason why policies do not translate into effective on-ground solutions. The reality in urban informal settlements is no different. They manifest multidimensional deprivation, characterised by a lack of secure tenure, inaccessibility, and inadequate sanitation and health services which marginalises the slum dwellers. Governments and NGOs also find it extremely difficult to effectively target vulnerable communities due to the lack of reliable data. Data on slum settlements is crucial for the inclusion of these underserved communities in city level development plans.

Realising the dire need for safe and hygienic sanitation facilities and practices, Pratima started leveraging data and technology since the late 90s when she realised that data with the Urban Local Bodies was inconclusive and disjointed with the on-ground reality. This propelled the need for a data system that would provide unfailing results. A year of continuous efforts and iterations resulted in a well-tailored Geographical Information System (GIS). It catered to the needs of slum mapping, and spatial layout formation. It also helped to link the socio-economic surveys taken to individual dwellings/house structures that were mapped on GIS. Our granular spatial data harnesses the power of geo-visualisation for effective planning and monitoring of our Sanitation, Housing and Covid-relief projects.

The communities form the backbone of Shelter Associates’ data-driven approach, as they are involved in conducting survey, creating awareness and making sure the data sets are inclusive. This spatial data is then shared with the respective Urban Local Bodies for validation. Once the process is complete, the data is made public on our website while it is also linked to the ULB’s website making it freely available for all to use.

The co-created data helps immensely in bridging the information gap. SA gives slum-dwellers a voice by arming them with data about their community, empowering them to make decisions making them partners in the developmental process.
