Newport Beach Startup Launches AI-Driven Platform to Automate Health Data Privacy and Consent Management

NEWPORT BEACH, CA, UNITED STATES, October 1, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- HealthConsent today announces its launch as an artificial intelligence (AI) startup focused on empowering Americans to proactively manage their personal health data privacy. Founded in Newport Beach, the company offers an AI-powered platform designed to automate the process of privacy requests, including opt-out, suppression, and deletion requests across millions of healthcare data holders.

“Our goal is to restore individual control over personal health information using advanced algorithms and secure consent management,” said Dr. Edward Sharpless, co-founder and CEO of HealthConsent. “We recognized the challenges American patients face when trying to safeguard their data—our AI system streamlines privacy compliance and delivers transparent outcomes at scale.”

As digital health adoption accelerates, patient data privacy concerns continue to rise. Manual opt-out processes are often complex, slow, and ineffective. HealthConsent addresses this pain point with proprietary technology that leverages AI to scan, analyze, and route deletion, suppression and opt-out requests automatically. The platform enables users to select over 7 million providers, clinics, hospitals, health insurers, pharmacies, health information exchanges and labs nationwide, enabling comprehensive and precise control over where their health data is shared or sold. The system monitors privacy status and regulatory changes in real time, enhancing transparency and patient trust.

“AI automation transforms how consumers manage health data consent and privacy,” said Yogesh Shrihari, co-founder of HealthConsent. “We see vast potential to alleviate burdens for both patients and providers, making compliance accessible and actionable.”

How It Works

• Users create a profile at myhealthconsent.org and identify doctors, clinics, hospitals, pharmacies, and labs they have visited
• The system generates, submits, and tracks opt-out, suppression and data deletion requests
• Machine learning algorithms continuously monitor privacy status and regulatory changes
• Users receive real-time updates and can adjust consent preferences as needed

Business Solutions

HealthConsent provides a specialized AI-powered platform designed exclusively to support healthcare organizations and companies responding to the critical healthcare data breach crisis. In light of the record 275 million healthcare records exposed in 2024 alone, HealthConsent offers breached organizations a valuable way to rebuild trust and goodwill with their affected members. By providing members with clear, transparent, and automated control over their health data privacy, HealthConsent complements existing breach response efforts that help members actively protect their sensitive information. This proactive approach reduces administrative burdens while enabling organizations to demonstrate a genuine and ongoing commitment to enhancing privacy protections and restoring patient confidence throughout breach recovery.
