Doctors publish case studies all the time which contain anonymized data. Presumably those go through reviews to make sure that nothing is being leaked but health data by it's nature is specific but not very personal (at least not identifiable).

Also, depending on what you're using ChatGPT for, this is no worse than Googling something which doctors do a lot as well.

Informed consent isn't a legal requirement. It's down to ethics and occasionally the journal's publishing requirements. So it we bring the analogy back to ChatGPT, using it for queries isn't breaking HIPAA or any laws.
