I understand the company the Deputy is referring to was a private limited company providing medical services to customers that had paid a membership fee.
If a patient experiences difficulties accessing their personal data or medical records following the closure of a medical practice or private company, they should contact the Office of the Data Protection Commissioner for assistance.
