Short answer: Clinical records are off the table under HIPAA and Mode's exclusions. Scheduling, workforce and operations records with patient data removed may be licensable. Census counts 7,494 U.S. home health agencies with 30+ employees.
PHI
HIPAA generally prohibits selling PHI without authorization (45 CFR 164.502). Mode says health records, payment card data and children's data are excluded, and that its AI customer is contractually barred from trying to identify anyone in the data (Mode affiliate FAQ).
What could be in scope
- Caregiver scheduling and dispatch workflows, de-identified.
