description Abstract: This paper considers the legislation in MERCOSUR about the protection of personal information in Telemedicine. As Telemedicine is a new way of exercising medicine that involves new juridical challenges, we consider the topic within the general legal framework of the MERCOSUR. MERCOSUR is 20 years old and can be properly analyzed to verify how it has dealt with the topic of Telemedicine. Telemedicine involves different issues such as the problem of liability, the authorization to practice telemedicine, the protection of personal information, the system of payment and reimbursement, the informed consent and the relation between doctor and patient. We analyze only the protection of personal health information. We found out that there is no specific regulation of Telemedicine in the legal framework of practising medicine in MERCOSUR. We also analyzed the norms in Argentina and Brazil to draw some conclusions. Finally, we propose some guidelines for public policy.
