Health Data Privacy


Listen Later

The United States has no general data privacy laws. However, we do have some sector-specific regulations, including HIPAA for health data. But there are many misconceptions about HIPAA. For example, the “P” in HIPAA does not stand for Privacy – it stands for Portability. So, what information does HIPAA cover? Which healthcare and related service providers are governed by HIPAA? And most importantly, what can you do to protect your medical and health data? Today we’ll dive deep into this subject with Kate Black, a data, privacy & health lawyer and a strategic advisor in the health data field.
