CA court order

DPayment of a processing fee

Answer:

B. The individual's informed consent

Read Explanation:

Access to a patient's health data linked to their ABHA number is strictly consent-based. The system uses a Consent Manager component to ensure that no health records are shared with any doctor, hospital, or application unless the individual patient explicitly provides their informed consent for that specific data exchange. This gives the patient complete control over their privacy.
