How has the law protecting health information impacted access to healthcare information and is there more work left to be done or are there other areas of concern now that the law is in place?
The law protecting health information has impacted access to healthcare information as the concerns for privacy and confidentiality has created hurdles in the access to the information as too much time is wasted in ensuring the privacy and confidentiality. More is left to be done, as we need firewalls to ensure that there is no breach of confidentiality and privacy. Things should be resolved at the level of IT i.e. the system rather than confirming from people in the organization as this wastes a lot of time.
