# Health Record Rights Index

> Health record rights in 198 countries and territories: an open index by SuperTruth Inc. scoring 198 countries and territories from 0 to 100 on one question: can a person see, control and share their own health record? Eight weighted rights: getting your full record (20%), control over who sees it (20%), privacy and security (15%), one record across your care (15%), protection from sale and ads (10%), doctors see it when treating you (10%), your say over research use (5%), rules for AI in your care (5%). Every score cites the public pages it rests on. Data as of October 2, 2026. License: CC BY 4.0. Quoted law and the titles of linked pages are not relicensed.

Key findings (2026): In 2026, none of the 198 countries and territories we rated puts a person fully in charge of their own health record. Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Hungary and Sweden lead, with 67 to 71 out of 100; allowing for scoring error, any of them could rank first. The typical country scores 39 out of 100. No country reaches the Leading band (85 and up). By band, 9 countries and territories score Strong, 66 Mixed, 111 Weak and 12 Poor. Everywhere, the government or the people who hold your record run the system: doctors, hospitals and insurers in 81, the government in 66, and in 51 you share the keys with them.

## How to cite

Snyder, J. A., Hill, R. P., IV, Raney, D., & Sims, L. (2026). Health Record Rights Index (version 1.0). SuperTruth Inc. https://healthrecordrights.com/

Paper: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.23120174
Data: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.23120172

Press and interviews: Rheanna Crescenzo, press@supertruth.ai

When you quote a figure, give the country, the score out of 100, the year and the data-as-of date, and link the country brief. Scores move in steps of about 5 points: quote a rank with its likely range (shown on each brief), never alone. Give the confidence label too when it is low.

Confidence: 27 high, 105 medium, 66 low. Confidence counts how many of the 8 rights rest on an official source, like a law, a government or regulator page, or an international agency such as WHO or OECD, with every key fact checked. High: 7 or 8 do. Low: 4 or fewer do. Medium: the rest. The evidence grade (DTI™) rates all the sources we cite, taken together, so a country can cite good sources overall and still have thin evidence on some rights. Both describe our evidence, not the country, and neither changes the score.

## URL patterns (stable)

A path with a word in braces, like /brief/{country-name}/, is a pattern on this site, not a link: replace the braces with a value, as in the example beside it.

- Index and ranking: https://healthrecordrights.com/
- Country brief: /brief/{country-name}/ (the English name in lower case with hyphens, for example https://healthrecordrights.com/brief/finland/; the code form /brief/{ISO3}/ redirects permanently to it)
- The United States in depth (US law, enforcement, how fair the US score is): https://healthrecordrights.com/us/
- The Carters, an American family (who can see a teen's, a parent's and a spouse's health record under US law): https://healthrecordrights.com/us/family/

- Compare two states side by side: https://healthrecordrights.com/us/states/compare/ and /us/states/compare/{state-a}-vs-{state-b}/ (two names in A to Z order, for example https://healthrecordrights.com/us/states/compare/california-vs-texas/; the code form {AA}-{BB} redirects permanently to it)

- Who to contact about your health record in the United States (your provider, the HHS Office for Civil Rights complaint portal, the federal information blocking portal, and for each of the 50 states and Washington, DC the attorney general pages we read, the health information exchange and whether you can opt out; not legal advice): https://healthrecordrights.com/act/ (a lookup list; each state's contacts, with the offices' links and quotes: /act/{state-name}/, for example https://healthrecordrights.com/act/ohio/; its line on the list: /act/#{USPS})
- Who to contact about your health record in each country and territory (the national patient portal where there is one, the privacy regulator, a patient rights body where we found one, and the health ministry where no privacy regulator was confirmed; each from an official page with a short quote, or named on a WHO, UN or embassy page where the office's own site could not be read; not legal advice): https://healthrecordrights.com/act/world/ (a lookup list; each country's contacts, with the offices' links and quotes: /act/world/{country-name}/, for example https://healthrecordrights.com/act/world/finland/; its line on the list: /act/world/#{country-name})

## Real cases

442 published accounts of problems with health records from 145 countries and territories, found in sources in 50 languages and published October 2024 to October 2026: records breached, refused, delayed or charged for, wrong, sold or shared, or lost between providers. Each is our own short summary of a report by a regulator, a court, a parliament or an edited news outlet, linked to the original. Cases as of October 7, 2026. They are not a sample: they show what is published and findable, never how common a problem is, and they never change a score. We never name the person.

A summary is ours, never anyone's words: do not put it in quotation marks. Do not use the cases to say how common a problem is.
