Summary

The bill mandates that healthcare providers cannot place diagnostic test results indicating a serious medical condition on a patient’s online portal unless the patient has given prior consent. The consent is obtained once, stays valid for future results, and can be revoked in writing at any time. It also sets formatting rules for the consent form and lets the Louisiana Department of Health adopt implementing rules.
