HB 1374 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Patient Privacy and Medical Recording Protection Act; create.

HB 1374, the Patient Privacy and Medical Recording Protection Act, prohibits unauthorized recording of medical interactions in doctors' offices and facilities without all parties' express consent, and restricts sharing identifiable patient information (like images or videos) without explicit written consent or anonymization. The bill requires medical facilities to display notices about recording bans and mandates that providers obtain consent before sharing any patient data. Violations could result in fines up to $10,000 per incident for sharing identifiable information, with the State Board of Medical Licensure enforcing the law and handling complaints. The law aims to protect patient dignity by preventing unauthorized recordings and data sharing, while allowing limited exemptions for training with consent or legal requirements.
