Germany based StatConsult, Gesellschaft für klinische und Versorgungsforschung mbH, is awarded with the European Privacy Seal for its IT-based service Haemoassist® 2 once again.

Haemoassist® 2 is a smart-phone based therapy management application for haemophilia patients and their physicians. It consists of an electronic patient diary (application) in interaction with a web based monitoring-interface for the attending physicians.

The service uses only pseudonymised data: Instead of the patient´s name, a specific ID is stored in the database of the service. The correlation of the patient´s name to this ID is only known to the patient and his/her physician.

The re-evaluation that was performed by EuroPriSe Legal Expert Hannelore Jorgowitz and EuroPriSe Technical and Legal Expert Knut Haufe focussed on the dedicated web interface for patients that was added to the service subsequent to the initial certification. The experts concluded that Haemoassist® 2 continues to meet all applicable EuroPriSe requirements.
