Assuming that security and privacy can be guaranteed, are you in favor of a universal online EMR system that is accessible by patients and by all doctors and hospitals that patients give access to?

2.6/11/2008 12:41:00 PMNA
3.6/11/2008 2:09:00 PMsome system, but I doubt security
4.6/11/2008 3:25:00 PMSecurity and privacy cannot be guaranteed on such a public access venue.
5.6/11/2008 3:25:00 PMSecurity and privacy cannot be guaranteed on such a public access venue.
6.6/11/2008 4:00:00 PMyes so long as it is NOT abused by insurance companies
7.6/12/2008 12:58:00 AMNot without compensation, or a significant reduction in cost to me of the system
8.6/12/2008 4:37:00 AMNO NO NO this is more money/time taken out of patient care
9.6/12/2008 11:59:00 AMGood luck on that.
10.6/12/2008 5:47:00 PMUncertain
11.6/14/2008 2:23:00 AMThis would massively increase cost and decrease productivity
12.6/18/2008 6:34:00 PMsecurity and privacy can NEVER be guaranteed
13.6/23/2008 3:03:00 PMnot by the patient
14.6/24/2008 3:02:00 AMBut through private industry not the government.
15.6/25/2008 2:28:00 AMas long it is not mandated
16.6/26/2008 2:07:00 AMBetter if patient access only in context of a physician present to interpret and answer questions. Would be very difficult to &quot;assume&quot; security or privacy if any patient (or whomever is using their computer) could access information directly without violating privacy laws and causing confusion.
