Legal risks of face recognition technology in medical field / 中华医院管理杂志

ABSTRACT

Under the background of " Internet+ medical treatment" and the continuous deepening of face recognition technology research, the face recognition industry has continued to mature, and face recognition has been initially applied in medical fields such as hospital management, auxiliary medical care, and epidemic prevention and control. At the same time, face recognition technology brings problems including error risk, technical cracking risk, privacy risk, equality risk, abuse risk, and other issues in practice, which seriously threaten the personal and property rights and interests of the public. On the basis of summarizing the specific application direction of face recognition technology in hospitals, the authors sorted out the legal regulation of face recognition in China, and proposed that it should be based on technology research and development, strengthen the " gatekeeper" responsibility of medical institutions, improve legal system and recommendations for strengthening judicial leadership in order to improve the legal regulations of face recognition technology, reduce the risk of infringement by medical institutions in the application of face recognition technology, and protect the legitimate rights and interests of citizens.
