Medical data
Medical data is personal information related to the diagnosis, treatment, and overall healthcare of a patient and can include details like demographic details, drugs prescribed, laboratory tests, and health insurance. Medial data is sometimes referred to as an electronic medical record (EMR) and it is protected under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA).
