    Area of Science:

    • Health Informatics
    • Medical Record Management
    • Data Security

    Background:

    • The increasing adoption of computer-based medical records systems raises significant concerns.
    • Physicians and patients share anxieties regarding access control and data privacy.
    • Ensuring the security of sensitive patient information is a growing challenge.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To address the critical questions surrounding access to electronic health records (EHRs).
    • To explore strategies for preventing unauthorized access to medical information.
    • To emphasize the foundational role of access policy in data security.

    Main Methods:

    • Conceptual analysis of access control principles in healthcare.
    • Review of common security concerns associated with EHRs.
