Based on TFA, this bill sounds disastrous for healthcare research which depends on access to this sort of data to find treatments and cures for diseases like cancer, HIV, COVID, etc. I'm all for preventing advertisers from sweeping up our data, but a blanket ban on the sale of healthcare data would be lethally short-sighted (note that "personally identifiable" healthcare data is already protected by HIPAA, so I'm pretty sure this bill aims to eliminate the sale of "de-identified" healthcare data).
