The professor challenges the advantages of storing patients' medical records in electronic databases over traditional paper-based record keeping by stating that the benefits of electronic medical records are uncertain.

The reading first mentions that electronic medical records help to save money on storing and transferring medical records. The lecturer casts doubts on this by saying the cost saving is unlikely to be as significant as the reading suggests. doctors still need their paper-based medical records in case of an emergency. Also, paper records signed by the doctors are needed for legal reasons. Although doctors may use electronic record keeping, storage costs for paper based record keeping will still need to be paid.

The reading next mentions electronic medical records are essential in reducing the occurrences of medical errors. The lecturer argues against this stating that errors still exist in electronic medical records. doctors take notes while examining patients, which makes it impossible to avoid illegible handwriting. Later, office workers enter the information electronically and must interpret what doctors have written, which can lead to errors.

Finally, the reading passage claims that electronic medical records can benefit medical research, but this is refuted by the lecturer. because medical information is subject to strict privacy laws in the United states, and obtaining data requires complicated procedures and varying degrees of permission. In most cases, access is denied because patients can block the use of their medical records for any purpose other than their own medical treatment.
