CDT Publishes Paper on Electronic Health Records
The Center on Democracy and Technology has published a Policy Paper on the issues surrounding electronic health records. The paper, entitled “Privacy and Security Principles for Health Information Technology,” is broken down into three areas:
- CDT Calls for the Adoption of a Comprehensive Privacy and Security Framework for Health Information Technology
- Basics Required in any Health Information Technology Policy
- CDT’s Suggested Implementation
As electronic health records continue to develop, expect to see more Think Tanks and organizations developing thoughts and positions as to how they should be handled. ArsTechnica also has a good analysis of the paper.
