Last time I made blood test it really pissed me off why their forms require national ID and phone number. The nurse in turn was pissed at me why I'm reluctant to write down phone number.
- sofixa 2y agoIdk how it works where you are, but blood tests I've done in France require your phone number or email address for a notification and MFA when logging into the blood testing laboratory's platform to get your results. The National ID I'd presume is to put the test results in the relevant healthcare systems so that your doctors (and only them) can have access to them.
- lifestyleguru 2y agoExactly, also phone numbers are coupled with national ID and medical IT systems are leaky and outsourced into oblivion. In that case they didn't provide alternative to send link over email. Later on test results with full personal info can be acquired in darknet and Russian speaking internet [1]. Are there any consequences? The authorities advice to "be careful" and the service provider says "they're sorry".
