This LinkedIn Live provides a high-level overview of the My Health My Data Acta and detailed discussions of the stringent and prescriptive rules around notice, consent, data subject rights and geofencing. The act recently passed both houses of the Washington state legislature. Designed to protect the privacy of health data outside the scope of the U.S. Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, this legislation will impact a wide range of organizations and consumers in Washington and beyond — including those who might not think they are processing "health data." Panelists share their thoughts on the broad applicability of the act, the risk of lawsuits resulting from the act’s private right of action and other issues raised by this groundbreaking legislation. Watch the full recording on LinkedIn.
