TPO 46

The reading and the lecturer are both about that patients' information has been recorded and stored electronically instead of on paper forms. The author of the reading feels that this activity has enormous advantages over traditional paper-based. The lecturer challenges the claim made by the author. He says that these advantages are uncertain.

To begin with, the reading claims that electronic records can decrease costs by saving money on storing and transferring medical records. In the article, it is said that paper records need a significant amount of storage space, and doctors can easily access to the patients' data. This specific argument is challenged by the lecturer. He argues that doctors do not throw out their notes, and prescriptions from their patients. Additionally, she says they keep information for the emergency.

Secondly, the author states that electronic medical records are important for reducing the chances of medical errors. It is said that illegible handwriting, insufficient transcription of data, and nonstandard organization of paper records have caused so many errors in many cases that were related to the patients' health. The lecturer, however, rebuts on this by mentioning that doctors take note from their patients, after that they give it to another person to put it in an especial electronic file which is related to that patient. In this way, doctors prevent themselves from any errors.

Finally, the author posits that these electronic medical records are useful for medical research. The reading states that it is not possible to give all of the information about the patients by the paper records. In contrast, the lecturer's position is that using patients' data is difficult, and it is relevant to privacy law in the United States of America. She says that researchers need the allowance of the patient. For example, they maybe do not like to use their information for specific research.
