Digital health records improve healthcare coordination but raise significant privacy challenges due to sensitive patient information stored electronically. Risks include unauthorized access, data breaches, and misuse by third parties. Implementing strong encryption, access controls, and compliance with regulations like HIPAA and GDPR is critical. Additionally, patients must be empowered with control over their data sharing preferences. Balancing data utility and privacy protection remains a complex issue requiring continuous technological and policy advancements.
