Both the passage and the lecture discuss medical data storage, more specifically, whether this data should be stored electronically or by paper. The author of the passage thinks that there are many benefits from storing this information on an electronic system. On the other hand, the lecturer thinks that there is no real benefit from it. She presents points and arguments that effectively cast doubt on the assertions made by the author.
First, the passage argues that there is an economic benefit from E-storing. It is mentioned that faxing, copying or keeping a physical space for the data is expensive and storing them electronically would eliminate this cost. The professor does not agree with this. She points out that doctors who have adopted new measures for storing data still use pen and paper for back-up in case of an emergency or legal reasons, like when a signature is needed.
Second, the Author suggests that using computers to store data would reduce the human error. He says that things like bad hand-writing or lack of standardization lead to confusion that end up harming patients and using computers would avoid this. The lecturer rebuts this argument, she explains that doctors always use pen and paper, even when they have adopted new technologies. And on this cases, the doctor's personnel are the ones submitting paper data into computers, and they had to deal with the same problems that if they were only using paper.
Finally, the text posits that medical research would benefit from innovative data storage. The article establishes that physical data is not very accessible and using electronics would make the data more easily usable for researchers. The lecturer opposes this argument. She says that it would not help in any way to have the data store in a cloud. She explains that medical data is subject to privacy laws that can not be avoided, even when using electronics.
