💨 Abstract

The Trump administration is launching an initiative to have millions of Americans upload personal health data to private tech company apps. This "digital health ecosystem" aims to improve access to health records and monitor wellness, focusing on diabetes, weight management, and AI-driven patient assistance. Over 60 companies, including Google, Amazon, and major hospital systems, will participate. However, there are concerns about privacy and data security, with critics warning that patients' medical information could be misused.
