Who holds the health record in Mongolia?

In 2026, Mongolia scores 50 of 100 on a person's right to see, control and share their own health record: rank 51= of 198 countries (likely range 41 to 71), in the Mixed band (45 to 64). Who holds the keys: Shared. Source: Health Record Rights Index, SuperTruth, this country's data as of 2026-10-01.

The person has real controls inside a state or provider system. Its strongest right against the other countries is patient access to the full record (60, against a median of 43 across 198 countries); no right falls below the median, and the closest to it is protection from commercial use (45, median 45).

Mongolian law requires consent and notices when health data moves, but the national exchange is still being built and usage is unproven.
