Dr. Claude Micallef-Grimaud, a senior associate at Mamo TCV Advocates, recently delivered a presentation to members of the Mediterranean Institute of Primary Care regarding the implications of the GDPR for medical professionals. The topics ranged from general data protection obligations imposed on all data controllers to specific obligations and requirements relevant to medical practitioners, particularly those specialised in occupational medicine.

The talk also highlighted some exemptions and/or special circumstances that apply to certain medical practitioners (for example in connection with the carrying out of impact assessments and the appointment of a data protection officer).

The event was held on 7th September 2018 at the Corinthia Palace Hotel in Attard, Malta.
