Summary

The bill would stop New Hampshire state agencies, local governments, and their contractors from collecting, keeping, or giving out individually identifiable medical, disability, or mental‑health information unless the person consents, the law requires it, or it’s needed for health care. It also requires any required disclosures to be limited to the minimum data and to use de‑identified information whenever possible. The measure aims to strengthen privacy protections beyond existing federal and state laws.
