Every counter in your hospital collects data. Does each one have a proper notice?

A patient walks into your hospital. At the front desk, they give their name and Aadhaar. At billing, they share their PAN card. On your app, they upload reports. Each of these places collects their personal information. But does each place tell the patient WHY you are taking it? Under the new data law, you must. If you don't, your hospital can face heavy fines.
Think about your hospital's daily work. At registration, staff take the patient's name, Aadhaar, and phone number. At the diagnostic counter, they collect health reports. At billing, they take PAN card details. On your patient app, people upload prescriptions. Each of these steps is a data collection point. Each one needs a simple notice in the local language. The notice must say what you collect, why you collect it, and who will see it. No notice means no legal cover for your hospital.
List every counter or form where your hospital collects patient information.
Put a simple notice board or printed slip at each data collection point.
