My opinions?

1.When should the patient be advised of the existence of computerized databases containing medical information about the patient? ASAP -- either when the dr's ofc first establishes such a thing or when first going to a new doctor.

2. When the computer servoces bureau destroys or erases records,should the erasure be verified by the bureau to the physician? Absolutely

3.Should individuals and organization with acces to the databses be identified to the patient? Absolutely

4. Does the AMA ethics opinion mention encryption as a technique for security? I don't know; you'd have to research via the AMA to find out. I should hope so, however!

5.In regard to electronic medical(EMRs) what is the policy for disclosing authorized data requested by third parties? Whose policy? The doctor's? The hospital's? Whose?
I am working on the same paper use your opinion 5.07 it has all of the information. then google each question in different word combinations and follow the links. so far I have found enough information for the first two questions. Also use the books you received for information. Also look um MLA to cite your work because APA is confusing
