CLEAR collects this information directly from the individual with their explicit consent, and TGH does not store or manage the biometric or identity data. With CLEAR1 now deployed across its workforce, TGH plans to expand secure verification to patient-facing workflows through CLEAR’s integration with Epic MyChart, further advancing the hospital’s commitment to delivering secure, seamless digital experiences.
