State Consent Laws

HIPAA’s consent rules interact with other consent laws and state law. This is why the Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC) is working with states and other health policy groups [PDF - 3.5 MB] to enable interoperable data sharing.

ONC has developed many resources regarding State Consent Laws

  • Summary of Health Information Privacy Law and Policy
  • State Health IT Privacy and Consent Laws and Policies
  • More Information on State Laws and HIPAA
  • State policies on opting in or opting out of electronic health information exchange (HIE) [PDF - 429 KB]
  • State-Sponsored Health Information Exchange HIE Organizations’ Consent Policies [PDF - 683 KB]
  • Database of State Health IT Privacy and Consent Laws and Policies
  • Buzzblog for state law work
