Patient Device Data Access Act of 2025

HR 6117, the Patient Device Data Access Act of 2025, requires medical device manufacturers to share patient-specific data recorded or transmitted by covered devices (like pacemakers or remote monitors) when a patient requests it. The bill mandates that manufacturers provide this data in understandable formats, publish device-specific data policies on their websites, and notify patients about how to access their information. It directly affects patients using covered devices and device manufacturers, while exempting data stored in inaccessible closed systems. The law focuses on enabling patient access to their own health data without requiring device redesigns or disclosing proprietary information.
