Cassidy Bill: Health Data Privacy for Apps & Wearables

Here are three boxes, formatted as requested, to insert into the provided text. I’ve placed suggestions for *where* to insert them after each box.

Did you know?-HIPAA originally focused on protecting health information held by providers and insurers, but didn’t cover data generated by newer technologies like fitness trackers.

*Suggested insertion point:* After the first paragraph, before the “Growing Concerns…” heading.

Pro tip:-Data minimization, a key principle of HIPRA, means companies should only collect the health data absolutely necessary for a specific, stated purpose.

*Suggested insertion point:* After the “HIPRA: A HIPAA-Like Framework…” paragraph, before the “Key Provisions…” heading.

Reader question:-If HIPRA passes, will I automatically have the right to see *all* the health data a company has about me? Generally, yes, but access may be limited to data you directly provided.

*Suggested insertion point:* After the “Implications for the Health Tech Industry” paragraph,before the “The Future…” paragraph.
