TOEFL T P O 46 - Integrated Writing Task

Doctors today in the US are persuaded to use electronic medical record systems which could replace the records on paper forms. In that comparing the both methods, there are more benfefits if the patients' medical data stored in the elxectronic database. While the lecturer contends that these benefits are still uncertain. She addresses her views as follows.

Firstly, the electronic medical record systems would not reduce the costs. In the passage it is said that paper ones need considerable amount of storage space as well as the costs of transferring. While there is almost no cost in the elextronice ones as they take up no space and could be accessible easily. While the lecturee disproves that the doctors still need to the paper ones as back up or in emergent situations.Doctors still need the to write down the patients' reocords when eaxming them. Moreover, the paper ones are necessary for the lawyers if they are needed in the lawsuit.

Secondly, as the dorctors still have to use the paper ones when examing the patients.There would be a worker interpret the paper records into the database if the electronic ones in use. Thus it is possbile there are still manual mistakes by those interpreters when they read the doctros' hadn writting.

Thridly, the strict privacy law makes it nearly impossbile that the electronic medical records would help research. In that there is a very strict privact law in the US which protect the individual information from leaking.Thus the patients' informations are difficult to collect together. Even if the researchers want to get any infromation, they would get permissions of the autoritt at first, and they should be allowed to do this by the patients' permissions,too.
