A Letter of Authorization (LOA) is a formal document that allows CrowdWise to act on your behalf to request your medical data from hospitals and medical institutions. By signing this letter, you empower us to obtain your data securely.
No, we do not. We only have the right to extract your data from various institutions that hold it.
No. You allow us to extract and get it. We only check that the provided data is valid and that the company or institution provided it as requested. Only you decide to whom to sell or donate it. You do it by joining researchers on the platform. CrowdWise internal research is also listed on the platform with other projects. You have to join it to allow us to carry out any research on your data.
Medical institutions require explicit permission to release your data.
The LOA ensures that our request is legally valid and that we can retrieve your information on your behalf.
The LOA is designed to relieve your burden—you won't need to navigate the complex and often
time-consuming process of requesting the data and then uploading it manually.
Instead, CrowdWise handles everything for you, saving you time and effort.
Once you sign the LOA and tell us in your user profile which institutions hold your data, CrowdWise submits the request directly to the relevant hospitals or institutions. After the data is retrieved, it is securely stored in an environment where researchers can access it, ensuring your information remains private and under your control. Signing an LOA enables us to streamline the process of accessing your health data, freeing you from the hassle while ensuring your information is handled securely and efficiently.
