The mother of a pediatric psychiatric patient filed the lawsuit in a local circuit court alleging UofL Health’s website unlawfully transmitted private health data to Facebook parent company Meta Platforms, according to the story. Several other health systems around the country have been hit with similar complaints.
A UofL Health spokesperson told the newspaper the organization does not comment on pending litigation but that its website does not give Meta Pixel access to patient health information.
Meta told the Courier-Journal in a statement that it filters out sensitive health data such as medical conditions, procedures and treatments. “We don’t want websites or apps sending us sensitive information about people,” the statement read.
