Omenka Nwachukwu, Principal Consultant, Privacy and Compliance, Clearwater, speaks with Kaitlyn O'Connor, Co-Founder and Partner, Elevare Law, about the growth in state privacy laws covering wide ranges of health data and how digital health companies are being impacted. They discuss the role state legislation is playing in addressing gaps left by federal health care privacy laws, how state privacy laws are going beyond the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) in certain areas, and trends in state regulatory activity. They also discuss how digital health companies can ensure compliance across multiple jurisdictions while maintaining innovation, adapt to a broader definition of health data under state laws, and navigate operational and technical challenges in implementing state-specific privacy requirements.
