The Hidden Market for Your Medical History

00:00

Imagine visiting your doctor, sharing intimate details about your health, and walking out with a prescription. What you likely don't realize is that within seconds, your medical information begins a journey through a multi-billion dollar marketplace. While your name is removed, everything else-your conditions, medications, test results, and demographics-is packaged and sold repeatedly to companies you've never heard of. This hidden trade processes millions of health records daily, with firms like IMS Health (now IQVIA) maintaining dossiers on over 500 million patients worldwide. Pharmaceutical giants consider this data so valuable they pay tens of millions annually to access it. Meanwhile, you probably can't even access your complete medical records during an emergency. This paradox sits at the heart of our modern healthcare system-a world where your most intimate details have become valuable commodities traded without your knowledge or consent.
