On October 5, 2023, Seyfarth offered a Masterclass, hosted by
Lexology, which was designed to familiarize in-house counsel and
privacy professionals, in and out of Washington state, with the My
Health My Data Act legislation. Portions of the Act are already in
effect and go into further effect on March 31, 2024.
We explored its obligations and its wide reach, specifically
addressing how to identify: (1) who must comply; (2) who gets new
rights and protections; and (3) what data is covered, since all of
these are more wide-reaching than it may appear to the casual
observer of state privacy legislation.
This session also uncovered significant "sleeper"
compliance obligations and provided practical insight and
actionable steps to use when guiding business teams.
