My comments on the proposed changes are : I want to be able to opt out of the medical records data base and I want the protections to be as comprehensive as possible. Also the estimated price tag for this change to an electronic system is over one billion dollars ! The claims that the new system will generate billions in savings are not supported by evidence or the history of changes like this ! Medical records are important private information and they need to be kept as secure as possible.
