Event Details

The My Health My Data (MHMD) Act is a new Washington law that applies to a large set of businesses and nonprofit organizations that collect health information about consumers. The law is meant to better protect the privacy of consumers’ health information.

• Is your nonprofit or small business required to comply with the MHMD Act?
• What are the requirements for compliance and what steps should you take to meet them?
• Also does your organization have a privacy policy in place that informs your customers about what you do with their personal data they provide you?

These questions and more will be addressed at this important training by health law attorney Maddie Haller and privacy law attorney Jeff Brennan. Our goal for the training is that you take away from it:

• The key elements you need to know about the My Health My Data Act and the main elements that need to be in your organization’s privacy policy.

Who should attend?
Nonprofit leaders and business owners who provide health services and collect health information as a part of your work.
