BREAKING Chief Inspector #Borders and #Immigration report reveals Operation DINTEL– secret Home Office operation using NHS data on patient debt to track down asylum seekers and migrants at their home address and arrest them #StopSharing #HostileEnviroment gov.uk/government/new… 
Sharing NHS patient data with the Home Office makes many of our patients too afraid to see a doctor when they are unwell. See the evidence we submitted to the review doctorsoftheworld.org.uk/wp-content/upl…
Last year we campaigned with @NAT_AIDS_Trust @libertyhq @DocsNotCops @Medact @MaternityAction @MigrantRightsCA to stop the Home Office using NHS patient data to track down patients. Government backed down.
“My husband was having blackouts, and had a problem with his heart, but we were really afraid to go to the hospitals. We didn’t know what would happen if we went there and they checked our application status. So there were times we decided to stay at home and not go."
Kalini’s husband was tortured in his home country. They worry the NHS would share their information with the Home Office and authorities in their home country. bit.ly/DOTWlvdex
@EHRC report calls on government to #Stopsharing data between the #NHS and immigration officials #AccessHealthcare bit.ly/DOTWEHCR
Today, @EHRC demands “a clear separation” between immigration policy and healthcare to uphold UK’s equality and human rights obligations, calling on government to:
#Stopsharing data between the #NHS and immigration officials
End #NHS charges for people in England who have been refused asylum
This morning government withdrew a controversial info-sharing agreement. By the afternoon, they announced that they are working on a new one. We will continue to challenge any agreement that threatens the safety and confidentiality of our healthcare services. #StopSharing
This year 70,000 docs + patients signed our petition to #StopSharing patient information w/ the @ukhomeoffice. In May, the deal was suspended. TODAY news the deal will be WITHDRAWN after legal action by @libertyhq and @migrants_rights Read our statement: bit.ly/DOTWstop
The deal, written in secret, allowed the @ukhomeoffice to access patient information to support immigration enforcement. This data could be used to trace patients, resulting in their arrest, detention, and potential deportation. #StopSharing doctorsoftheworld.org.uk/News/stopshari…
The change in policy comes after intense campaigning by @DOTW_UK, @NAT_AIDS_Trust + @libertyhq which gained support from cross-party MPs and medical bodies. A huge thanks to @sarahwollaston @PaulWilliamsMP @lucianaberger + @DavidLammy #StopSharing
