Long but interesting post about security problems that could arise, from bit torrent to having Big Brother put information about all your energy use on line...
then there is the question of privacy in medical records...link2...
we had our (MS DOS) records get infected ten years back, and it was a mess. Of course, this was only the summary of patient problems and what medicines they were taking, and we still had the large paper charts, but still, it was a mess.
I suspect most offices will end up using a "cheat sheet" for each patient, so we don't get too lost in the trivia that the government now asks us to document.
And, of course, a lot of the really private things won't get into the medical records....
