Security Concerns of Electronic Health Records (Cloud Computing)

C

lient Intruder: This kind of attackers breaks into the client computer.

E

avesdropper: This type of attacker is usually able to link communicating

parties by means of addresses used by the communication media.

C

urious insider or server intruder: This attacking is in possession of

administrative privileges and thus has full access to log information as

well as content data of the EHR system.

Trend of Electronic Health Records System Used the Cloud Computing

R

educing the transmission of Cost of Healthcare

There is an international trend of increasing healthcare costs due

to the ageing population, increasing burden of chronic disease, and

increasingly expensive care options, and wastage of resources

through inappropriate, unnecessary or duplicated interventions.

Trend of Electronic Health Records System Used the Cloud Computing

R

ewards

Virtually any current EHR application can support more efficient and accurate

collection, storage, analysis, and distribution of data than current manual operations.

E

mpowerment of e-health Providers and Consumers

Lots of the electronic health services are confined to the providers servers with very

little empowerment on the consumer side.

Trend of Electronic Health Records System Used the Cloud Computing

P

roviding Patient Safety

Important diagnostic and therapeutic error rates are observed in all jurisdictions based on the previous

IT developments.

P

ain

At present, available EHR applications rarely allow a seamless flow of data to a common database

where multiple users – physicians, researchers, administrators, patients, and nursing stations – can

convert data to information using a shared set of tools.

Conclusion T

he Electronic Health Records is the typical system which used the cloud computing

technology.

T

he whole big database hold by the “cloud” makes it more powerful than the input we

ever used.

T

he cloud computing based EHR system will develop fast in the future.

I

t can bring the developing opportunities of people healthcare, in order to improve the

life level around the world.
