Bill > A441

Introduced Session

This bill establishes the "New Jersey Health Care and Privacy Protection Act." Under the bill, any business in this State that tracks, uses, collects, stores, or sells precise geolocation data of an individual in this State is prohibited from disclosing such data or any personal data of any person located in or in close proximity to a reproductive health care facility. The bill defines "reproductive health care facility" as any hospital, clinic, office, or other site that provides, refers, or seeks to provide legally protected health care activity, including, but not limited to, contraception, pregnancy testing, and abortion services. It is an unlawful practice and a violation of the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act, N.J.S.A.56:8-1 et seq., for a business to violate the bill. Further, the bill clarifies that the laws of New Jersey govern in any action against a person providing or receiving legally protected health care activity in New Jersey. The bill defines "legally protected health care activity" to mean providing, seeking, receiving, assisting with, or inquiring about reproductive health care services or gender affirming health care services that are lawful in the State of New Jersey. Finally, the bill replaces any instance of "unborn child" with the term "fetus" in relevant statutory provisions. It is the sponsor's intent to protect the rights of individuals to access and provide legally protected health care services in New Jersey and to safeguard persons' privacy in seeking such care.
