What You Need to Know About Louisiana Hospitals Sharing Patient Data

An investigation published last June by The Markup revealed that some healthcare systems are sharing sensitive patient data with third parties in potential violation of privacy laws.

Meta Pixel is a computer code created by the company that owns Facebook and Instagram that lets companies track how visitors interact with their websites. In the Louisiana health system cases, the Pixel captured personal health information and shared patient data without the patient’s knowledge or consent.

Hospitals should keep patient information secure, but the Pixel collected patient data like doctors’ names, appointment times, allergic reactions, and health conditions.
