Healthcare systems worldwide are increasingly digitizing, gathering, and processing massive volumes of patient data through electronic health records, telemedicine, mobile health applications, laboratories, insurers, and health-tech platforms. Initiatives such as the Ayushman Bharat Digital Mission (ABDM) have hastened this digital transition in India. At the same time, worries over privacy, security breaches, and unauthorised data usage have intensified requests for robust legislative protections.
