What is a disadvantage of cloud computing for managing electronic health records and electronic medical records?
What will be an ideal response?
A significant disadvantage to cloud computing is that a separate entity becomes responsible for managing the security and privacy of the EHR/EMR. What security protections are in place in the "cloud?" How tightly are they monitored? What happens if the cloud computing organization's security is lax and the healthcare information is stolen? Who is liable? Due to the security risks, many healthcare providers are keeping their records in-house and installing a local client-server network that they can be responsible for protecting.
