Frequently Asked Questions
Use cases in the healthcare industry typically include storing and processing Personal Health Information (PHI). PHI is subject to Canadian federal law and provincial laws that mandate data privacy. Beyond the legal requirements, most people consider healthcare information to be particularly private, and they expect their healthcare providers to manage the data accordingly.
Personal Health Information (PHI) is subject to Canadian federal law via the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). In addition, at least seven provinces have their own legislation governing the privacy of healthcare data. In Ontario, the Personal Health Information Protection Act (PHIPA) places legal obligations on healthcare data custodians and their agents.
Each AWS customer is responsible for using AWS in a manner suitable for their use case. AWS facilitates this by maintaining a comprehensive compliance program and making extensive program documentation available to its partners and customers. Qalius works with our healthcare customers to design healthcare web applications and healthcare solutions on AWS that are suitable for healthcare data.
Solutions on AWS for processing and storing Personal Health Information (PHI) correctly configure the security features of AWS services to implement redundant controls, also known as defence in depth. Secure solutions also use AWS services that govern multiple AWS account environments, offering continuous real-time governance and automation.
Canadian federal legislation does not require healthcare data to be stored in Canadian data centres. In Ontario, PHIPA does not require Canadian residency for healthcare data; however, it is common for Ontario healthcare institutions to have their own policies or preferences for Canadian data residency.
Data in AWS will be stored (resident) in Canada if the data are deployed to the Canada Central AWS region or the upcoming Canada West AWS region. AWS doesn’t move data between AWS regions unless you specifically provision the move.
