A major Colorado health provider faces a proposed class-action lawsuit alleging it shared sensitive patient search data with Meta through a common website tracking tool.<\/p>\n

Larimer County resident Patrick Miller filed the suit last week in U.S. District Court in Denver, reports<\/a> Denver Post.<\/p>\n

The complaint claims UCHealth deployed Meta\u2019s Pixel on its \u201cFind a Doctor\u201d feature and possibly its patient portal to capture users\u2019 searches for conditions or symptoms along with identifying details.<\/p>\n

That information allegedly helped build user profiles for advertising and marketing purposes, the filing states.<\/p>\n

The lawsuit argues the practice violated HIPAA rules that generally prohibit hospitals from disclosing identifiable private health information to third parties without patient consent. The lawsuit alleges UCHealth never informed patients it could send their information to Meta.<\/p>\n

Says the lawsuit,<\/p>\n

\u201cThe purpose and result of defendant\u2019s use of the tracking Pixel was marketing and profits.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

UCHealth maintains it prioritizes patient privacy and plans to defend against the claims if the case proceeds.<\/p>\n

Says UCHeath,<\/p>\n

\u201cWe disagree with the plaintiffs\u2019 argument and plan to defend ourselves if this issue moves forward.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Similar lawsuits against other health systems have resulted in multimillion-dollar settlements, including $1.8 million by Atrium Health and $3.7 million by Duke University Health System.<\/p>\n

The suit does not name Meta as a defendant.<\/p>\n
