Demystifying Washington State’s My Health, My Data Act

Demystifying Washington State’s My Health, My Data Act

Medical Healthcare Science

The recently enacted My Health, My Data Act (MHMD) will regulate the collection, use, sharing, analysis, and sale of health-related data of individuals in Washington state and beyond. With expansive definitions of consumers, consumer health data, and regulated entities, MHMD imposes stringent restrictions on the processing of a broad range of data and creates a host of new challenges and obligations.

Lawyers in our Privacy & Security practice discussed a comprehensive overview of MHMD, its associated obligations, and its profound impact and extensive reach. In addition to providing an overview of the law, we also:

  • Examined the law's treatment of biometric information.
  • Considered unique challenges of the law with respect to sharing and using data in the ad tech ecosystem.
  • Explored how the law impacts healthcare entities in particular, including how they can adapt to the new regulatory environment
  • Unpacked the law's private right of action, including what constitutes "injury" necessary to bring a claim.
