Medical Privacy in an Electronic Age—A Discussion of the Issues
As growing numbers of physicians, hospitals, pharmacies, and other health care providers start using the Internet to access patient records, increasingly large databases of patient information can be created and harvested. This trend towards quick and broad access to data has generated mounting public concern over the privacy and confidentiality of such information.

Summary of Regulation/HHS Fact Sheet
Each time a patient sees a doctor, is admitted to a hospital, goes to a pharmacist or sends a claim to a health plan, a record is made of their confidential health information. For many years, the confidentiality of those records was maintained by our family doctors, who kept our records sealed away in file cabinets and refused to reveal them to anyone else. Today, the use and disclosure of this information is protected by a patchwork of state laws, leaving large gaps in the protection of patients' privacy and confidentiality. There is a pressing need for national standards to control the flow of sensitive patient information and to establish real penalties for the misuse or disclosure of this information.
