Veradigm operates multiple health IT products including Practice Fusion, Netsmart, and data analytics businesses. Your FollowMyHealth data may contribute to various commercial intelligence products.
Each connected provider has their own privacy practices, plus FollowMyHealth's terms, plus Veradigm's corporate data uses. Understanding the full scope of data sharing requires reading multiple policies.
