Examine an issue related to electronic medical records and consider the implications of this issue for health care administration. Some possible issues include, but are not limited to, the following:
linking of genome information to medical records and resulting privacy issues;
the problem of missing older records when medical records are moved to electronic and the resulting loss of information related to patient care;
overall security of electronic medical records;
freedom of digitized information to move around (insurance companies requiring a HIPA waiver, but not pledging to keep that information secure).
In doing so, you should consult appropriate research, convey your findings, and apply what you have learned to your healthcare organization (Primary Care)
You are also expected to support your discussion with at least two relevant articles, at least one of which should be from a peer-reviewed academic journal obtained through a scholarly database. You must cite these sources in your response and be fully prepared to discuss them within this forum space.
