(Health) Data is What (Health) Data Does in Nevada

Key Points: 
  • (Health) Data is What (Health) Data Does in Nevada
    Note: This title is inspired by Professor Daniel J. Solove’s recent essay, ‘Data Is What Data Does: Regulating Based on Harm and Risk Instead of Sensitive Data.’
    On June 16, 2023, Nevada Senate Bill 370 (SB 370) was signed into law by Governor Lombardo, making Nevada the second state, after Washington, to pass broad-based consumer health data privacy legislation this session.
  • The Washington ‘My Health, My Data’ Act (MHMD), which was enacted on April 27, 2023, established a first-of-its-kind, comprehensive framework within U.S. law for the protection of consumer health data and health-related inferences.
  • SB 370 and MHMD adopt similar, but not identical, frameworks for protecting personal health data.
  • By contrast, MHMD excludes data that is subject to HIPAA and GLBA, but not HIPAA and GLBA-regulated entities in their entirety.
