What OpenAI says
“To use our API platform with PHI, you'll first need a BAA with OpenAI.”
“Only ChatGPT Enterprise or Edu customers that have a sales-managed account are eligible for a BAA for ChatGPT at this time. Please note that we don't offer a BAA for ChatGPT Business.”
What the BAA covers and excludes
Excludes or limits, in OpenAI's words:
- "Web Search with live internet access is not HIPAA eligible and is not covered by a BAA." (OpenAI API docs, Your data)
- "We review each BAA request on a case-by-case basis and may need additional information."
What this means for ad tracking
Marketing teams use ChatGPT to analyze campaign exports, call notes and lead lists. Whatever is pasted in or sent through the API is shared with OpenAI.
Outside the products OpenAI names, keep patient details out of ChatGPT. Campaign and conversion data that carries no health information is the safer input either way.
Curve Compliance gives your team conversion data to work from that has been checked for PHI-like patterns and sent server-side under a BAA Curve signs on every plan. Book a call to see it on your own funnel.
How Curve helps
- Curve gives you conversion data that is already stripped of PHI-like patterns, so the numbers you analyze are not patient records.
- Server-side conversion tracking in place of pixels: conversions reach your ad platforms from Curve's server, not from the patient's browser.
- PHI-like pattern detection checks every event before it goes out, and neutral event names keep conditions and treatments out of what the platforms see.
- Identifiers are hashed with SHA-256 to each platform's requirements.
- Consent management for your site, alongside the tracking.
- A HIPAA-compliant setup done by Curve's team, in about a week, with a BAA signed on every plan.
