To find out more about the rapidly digitizing learning health care system that collects, stores, aggregates and uses consumer data for treatment, payment and operations (care, quality and research).
*However, there is little access, control, permission, transparency or discussion of benefits and risks of health data sharing for consumers.
Public policy is moving toward consumer’s owning health data *However, there are no mechanisms that ubiquitously provide consumer-mediated data management capabilities in the health interoperability ecosystem and current legal regulation does not support
The purpose of this research is to: *understand predictors of heath data sharing preferences of consumers, *develop a theoretical model that describes constructs of information privacy, data security, data sharing preferences and consumer-mediated exchange, and; *use findings to inform the development of data governance policy recommendations that are more appropriate in an era where consumers want to own and control their health data.
