Patients see pitfalls in paperless health records | The Australian
*ONE day this month, general practitioner Douglas Hor plans to throw a
switch that will finally make his medical practice fully electronic -- and
at the same time render his more than 30,000 paper-based patient files
effectively obsolete. *

From that point, the seven doctors at his Artarmon surgery on Sydney's north
shore will be compelled to add all updates to patient records by typing on a
keyboard, forsaking the handwritten notes that have formed the bedrock of
medical practices for generations.
