Palantir's NHS data deal called in for a second opinion
The UK government is reviewing its contract with Palantir for the NHS Federated Data Platform, awarded under a SaaS model with £330 million. Experts criticize the deal due to Palantir's ties to US security agencies and the NHS's failure to establish health data standards, while the company claims improved patient outcomes.
