most of the issues with our charting software boils down to dumb shit like that - proprietary systems that are incapable of communicating, or just good ol’ fashioned garbage design

This is everywhere. I deleted a more thought out response when I realized that someone probably handed over ALL of the backend databases of patient data to an LLM (it's HIPAA compliant so don't worry *wink*) so that it can spew out MORE bullshit that doesn't work, but a lot of money was paid for it so we're going to use it.

HIPAA is the opposite of privacy anyway - it's specifically about enabling sharing of data 🤦🏼.

And it was sold as a privacy tool. Lying cocksuckers.

HIPAA is a framework for CONTROLLED sharing of data.

Privacy = controlled sharing of data

HIPAA has a lot of problems. But it's not some trick.

This is such a weird take. Your healthcare professionals need to be able to share your data with specialists safely and securely. That's what HIPAA is about from my perspective, and everyone I work with. If you want effective care, you need to be able to share your medical data without fear of it leaking. The fact that people abuse the system is a separate problem

:-(

So yet another way a normal person just trying to live life is a product for an ever increasing set of companies.
