| contents | Sri Lanka recently passed its first privacy legislation covering a wide range of sectors, including health. As a precursor for effective stakeholder engagement in the health domain to understand the most effective way to implement legislation in healthcare, we have analyzed 41 popular mobile apps and web portals. We found that 78% of the tested systems have third-party domains receiving sensitive health data with minimal visibility to the consumers. We discuss how this will create potential issues in preparing for the new privacy legislation. |
