In the last episode, we discussed how different industry stakeholders are taking advantage and navigating the challenges of the use of consumer data in healthcare. While the industry wrestles with some concerns about data privacy, the question remains: who is working to protect the data of consumers and patients?

In part two of Advisory Board\u2019s series on consumer data, host Rachel Woods invites Advisory Board experts Ty Aderhold, Sara Zargham, and Paul Trigonoplos to discuss one stakeholder that is making moves to protect data privacy: the FTC. In the conversation, they explore recent regulatory actions taken by the FTC and what this means for the industry.
