It’s almost as if it’s some science fiction coming to life. People impersonating other people and accessing their most precious medical records. It sounds like it’s a small problem but in reality, it is scary at the very least. This was one of the bigger concerns in the past when we just kept our health records inside filing cabinets. In reality, people who had access to the cabinet can easily just pull up your records and do whatever they want with it. For this reason, Medical Records Retrieval Systems were created. Simply put, it was a paperless system that eliminated the common fears of patients.

2. Biometrics to Strengthen Health
Sector Data Security
• It’s almost as if it’s some science fiction coming to life. People
impersonating other people and accessing their most precious
medical records. It sounds like it’s a small problem but in reality, it is
scary at the very least.
• This was one of the bigger concerns in the past when we just kept
our health records inside filing cabinets. In reality, people who had
access to the cabinet can easily just pull up your records and do
whatever they want with it. For this reason, Medical Records
Retrieval Systems were created. Simply put, it was a paperless
system that eliminated the common fears of patients.
• This, however, came into fruition without any hitches. It created new
problems and new ways of exploiting the system. For one, duplicates
and overlays became rather imminent. Lastly, the new method of
keeping the records also meant new ways for bad elements to
exploit the system.

3. Biometrics to Strengthen Health
Sector Data Security
• According to a blog post by Fortune.com. The health industry
is the number one victim in hacking on all sectors. Almost 43%
of the total data breaches during last year were all from the
health sector. Is it because of poor security? Not necessarily.
But one can say that people have been spending a lot of time
making sure they access the said data banks.
• In order to combat this threat, medical companies resorted to
using biometrics as a security feature. They use data from a
patient’s fingerprints, veins, iris, and facial features. This
feature not only aims to reduce overlays and duplicates, it also
aims to remove the incentive of hacking health information
because hackers will still have a hard time decoding the
information itself.

5. Let Choice Legal Assist You in your
Medical Records Retrieval Needs
• Think about it, in order to open your medical records or add
information on your account, you will be required to confirm
that it is actually you by facial or iris verification. If by any
chance hackers do still get your records, they still need to have
your iris or face to access them.
• Now, you can rest assured, knowing your medical records
won’t be easily stolen, destroyed, or even tampered with. To
