Keep patient data compliant without slowing care.
Protect patient data under GDPR and stay audit-ready, without slowing down care.
The problem
Compliance challenges in healthcare
01
Patient consent management
GDPR Art. 9 imposes strict rules on processing health data. Managing patient consent across EHR systems, research databases and third-party integrations is error-prone and labor-intensive.
02
Health data flows across systems
Patient data moves between hospitals, labs, pharmacies, insurers and research institutions, each with different access controls and processing purposes.
03
Clinical trial data protection
Research involving patient data requires pseudonymization, DPIAs and specific consent mechanisms that differ from standard clinical operations.
Why Marsstein
Compliance that doesn't slow down patient care.
Healthcare compliance should not mean more paperwork for clinicians. Marsstein follows the data flows in healthcare, from patient intake to lab results to insurance claims. The AI agent drafts DPIAs for health data processing, records of processing and GDPR consent workflows, and keeps the audit trail regulators expect. MDR technical documentation stays with your regulatory team; Marsstein covers the GDPR side of the same devices.
Frequently asked questions

Talk to usHow does GDPR apply to patient health records?
Health data is 'special category data' under GDPR Art. 9, which requires explicit consent or a specific legal basis for processing. This applies to electronic health records, lab results, prescriptions and any data that reveals a patient's health status. Marsstein drafts the required records of processing for your review.
Do clinics and hospitals need a DPO?
Yes. Healthcare providers typically process health data at scale, which triggers the mandatory DPO requirement under GDPR Art. 37. Marsstein works alongside your DPO: the agents list the gaps against the GDPR and draft the records of processing and DPIAs, and your DPO reviews them and decides.
What is a DPIA and when do we need one?
A Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) is required under GDPR Art. 35 when processing is likely to result in a high risk to individuals. In healthcare, this includes large-scale processing of health records, new health IT systems and clinical research databases. Marsstein drafts DPIAs for healthcare scenarios.
How does MDR compliance relate to GDPR?
Medical devices that process personal data must comply with both the MDR and the GDPR. The MDR requires technical documentation and post-market surveillance; the GDPR governs how patient data is collected, stored and shared. Marsstein covers the GDPR side: records of processing, DPIAs and data protection documentation for the data those devices handle.
