Abstract
The situations that appear in health care demand keep awake aspects of the
personal privacy, that in the normal life would be reserved to familiary relations. The
interactions that settle down between the person who care and who is cared is an
exceptional relationship of proximitiy. The healh professional , managers, computing
pleople and administratives, collect original data of clinical history, these data are
specially protected by the Protection Data law. Discretion has been considered an
essential quality of the health professionals and were been collected in codes that
regulate these professions. The arguments that defense the privacy value are bases
in the persons value, his/her dignity and autonomy.
