HB 3494

Illinois HB 3494, introduced by Rep. Mary Beth Canty and a large group of Democratic co-sponsors, creates a new Health Data Privacy Act regulating how companies collect, use, and share consumer health data. While the bill text is sparse in the summary provided, similar state laws (like Washington's My Health My Data Act) typically restrict AI-driven health data processing, require explicit consumer consent, and ban the sale of health information without authorization.
