WOTC - Patient records stored in central database

I asked this question in the Wisdom of the Crowd:

Should patient records be stored in a central database?

Here are the responses: (48 Votes)

44 % - Patients should be alerted by SMS when their data is being accessed.
31 % - This is necessary for doctors to view the patient records prior to treatment.
15 % - Patients with sensitive data, such as HiV patients, should be allowed to request their data to be stored offline.
10 % - No - as there is a high risk that sensitive data can be hacked and stolen.
