Comment on Health management platforms have to be the biggest waste of money I've ever seen

  I like to hope that my data won’t be released to companies like mychart without my consent.

    If the doctor uses mychart, thats where they store the internal data whether you have an account or not. Its their entire computer system most of the time.

      Yeah, a couple people are saying that, but I can’t find any information on how it’s implemented for providers. Regardless, not having an account is one less avenue for my information to be leaked. I do worry more about the doctor’s security practices (2FA, password complexity, password rotation, etc…) than my own.

        I’m sure some places use it to share info, but usually it basically becomes their entire software stack. Its like the salesforce of the health world. It does their billing, shift management, HR, CMS, everything.

    You don’t have a clear picture.

    My Chart is just a module of Epic systems. If it’s accessible to you, it means your healthy care provider uses epic as EMR. You data is there, that’s how the hospital or health care provider office works

    released to companies like mychart

    What does this mean? MyChart is a software solution used by many medical providers. They don’t “release” medical information to them.

    This would be like thinking someone using Office on their computer is “releasing” and documents they create to Microsoft.

      I mean, with o365, you technically do. Your example doesn’t work as well as you think it does.

        It does, your willful misinterpretation doesn’t change that.

        I looked through your post history, you seem to have at least enough technical aptitude to understand that.
