Patient Data Protection Act 2020

On 3 July 2020, Germany’s Federal Parliament, the Bundestag, passed the Patient Data Protection Act or Patientendaten-Schutz-Gesetz (PDSG). It entered into force less than four months later, on 20 October 2020.

The PDSG is part of a push for the digitalization of the German healthcare system. It introduces a number of innovative digital applications and requirements for the protection of patient information stored in an electronic format.
