◆ Google, U. of Chicago, File Responses to Proposed Class Action Suit. On June 26, a former University of Chicago Medical Center patient filed a proposed class action lawsuit^[1] in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois accusing the medical center of disclosing hundreds of thousands of its patients’ electronic health records to Google without seeking their consent. The lawsuit accuses the university of consumer fraud and fraudulent business practices because it allegedly never received express consent from patients to disclose medical records to Google, and the records did not strip identifiable date stamps or doctor’s notes.
