(b) DHIN is not a health-care provider and is not subject to claims under Chapter 68 of Title 18. A person who participates in or subscribes to the services or information that DHIN provides is not liable in an action for damages or costs of any nature, in law or equity, which result solely from that person’s use or failure to use DHIN information or data that was imputed or retrieved under DHIN’s rules or regulations. A person may not be subject to antitrust or unfair competition liability based on membership or participation in DHIN as the State’s sanctioned provider of health information services that are deemed to be essential to governmental function for the public health and safety.
