CDT Testimony Supports Draft Health Information Legislation - CDT today testified before the House Health Subcommittee in support of draft legislation regarding health information technology and privacy. CDT supports the draft language because it takes critical steps toward the goal of a comprehensive privacy and security framework, and targets many of the key issues raised by the new e-health environment. CDT urged the Subcommittee to develop this framework by building on the HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules. CDT also recommended including strong protections for health information held, or managed on behalf of consumers, by employers and companies not part of the traditional health care system.
