The benefits claimed for electronic medical records are actually every uncertain.First, the costs savings are unlikely be as significant as the reading suggests. For example, there probably won't be any savings related to record storage. You see, doctors who adopt electronic records usually don't throw out or discontinue the paper records. They keep the paper records as an emergency backup or because the paper originals with signatures are needed for legal reasons. So as a result, most doctors who adopt electronic record keeping still have to pay storage costs associated with paper-based record keeping.Second, electronic medical records cannot eliminate the possibility of errors caused by poor handwriting or by mistakes in the transcription of data. That's because most doctors, including those who've adopted electronic medical record keeping, still use pen and paper while examining patients. They take notes and write prescriptions by hand. It's usually the office staff of a doctor who entered this information at a later time from the handwritten documents into electronic systems. So poor handwriting can still lead to errors in the records since the staff members have to interpret what the doctor has written.Third, medical research would not necessarily benefit from electronic record keeping. Researchers will still find it difficult to access and use medical information. That's because access to all medical information is subject to strict privacy laws in the United States. Privacy laws exist to allow patients to keep their medical information private if they wish to. As a consequence, researchers who want to collect data from electronic medical records have to follow strict and complicated procedures and obtain many permissions along the way, including permissions from the patients. And often, such permissions are not granted. For example, patients can block the use of their medical records for any purpose other than their own medical treatment.
According to the reading passage, in the United States, patients' medical information has been traditionally recorded on paper forms and it has been suggested that recording of these data in electronic databases will be more advantageous because of several reasons. However, the professor finds all the ideas uncertain and brings up some evidence to refute them all.
First, using electronic records can properly reduce the cost of storing and transferring the medical records. In contrast, the professor asserts that most of the doctors not only use electronic records, but also keep storing the data by papers and prescriptions for legal purposes and they must pay the cost of storage of paper-based data as well.
Moreover, electronic records can reduce the chances of medical errors which may happen by illegible handwriting or improper transcription of data, etc. On the contrary, the professor underlies that when doctors are examining patients, they use paper and pen and take notes by hand, and then possible errors in prescriptions may enter from handwriting to the computer by staffs in their offices at a later time.
Finally, medical researchers can use these electronic recordings and information for their researchers and they can gather a great amount of classified data from any research location. Conversely, the speaker dismisses this issue due to the fact that medical records of patients are preserved under strict privacy laws and researchers must follow special methods to access the medical records of patients in the United States and to gain permissions from their doctors or even patients. Sometimes patients may block them and do not allow using these recordings other than for their treatment.
