Health Care Privacy

  • Movement towards an [[electronic health record] through technologies such as electronic prescribing and [[electronic medical records] results in patient health information becoming available to a larger number of parties including those who don't have an immediate need for such information. While there may be a common good (e.g., disease control or health statistics), this information can be made available to insurance companies or for medical marketing purposes which many patients would consider an invasion of privacy.
