I too share your same view. When I had this same discussion, the response I got was its not a matter of trust. But apparently in the terms & conditions (that consumers do not read anyways, including myself). There is a part of the data not being viewed by anyone not using it for diagnosis or treatment of the patient. Basically, only anyone with a medical degree and part of the team treating the patient can access the data & does not mention about the engineer using the data to build a better system to improve the system used for healthcare. So, ideally they want a candidate with a double degree in software and medicine. This term is applicable to other domains also. I do not accept the reason, but that is what it is.
