The claim
Keep our NHS Public press release of 21st August states that “NHS England has announced that patient data held by GPs is to be sold for £1 per request to ‘approved companies’ who wish to buy it. Patient records are supposed to be anonymised, with each name + first line of address merely replaced with a unique identifier code. A list of the codes will be held separately. But it will not be hard for names and addresses to be restored; once a patient record is uploaded. Any teenager could do it.”
