The Contact Lens Prescription Verification Modernization Act aims to update the Fairness to Contact Lens Consumers Act, primarily focusing on how contact lens prescriptions are verified and handled by online sellers. A key provision mandates that online sellers must offer a secure, electronic method for individuals to transmit their contact lens prescriptions, ensuring compliance with HIPAA privacy regulations . To enhance privacy, the bill requires that any protected health information sent by an online seller via email must be encrypted . It also expands the required contact information for prescribers to include their email address , alongside their name and telephone number. Finally, the legislation clarifies that prescription verification calls made using an artificial or prerecorded voice are not considered valid under the Act, promoting direct communication.
