For the 164th episode of the Healthcare IT Today Podcast, we are talking about 23andMe and privacy! We kick this episode off by discussing 23andMe’s declaration of bankruptcy to theorize what we think this means for the company and what will happen going forward. Next, we talk about the privacy issues that come from 23andMe and other companies with a lot of healthcare data going bankrupt. Then, we share what we think the impact will be on precision medicine and genomic data. Lastly, we discuss if there will be anything positive coming from the 23andMe journey.

Here’s a preview of the topics and questions we discuss in this episode:
