  • People who can take an advantage of the Patient’s data , how far they can get to considered as outlaws , if they are steal the data of steal then sell the data ?
  • Security leakage : even the strong system will get a security leakage , from the users , so how to prevent or lower the security leakage cases and how to treat those kind of cases ?
  • This system will drop the usable EMR s and EHR s already used by hospitals ?? replacing it ? or will be compatible to it some how ?
  • Statistical Data from this system : is that belong only to the Government as national property or can be used by research centers / companies , the private ones as the national official ones ?
  • Hearing some Objections about joining this project, people who are afraid of publicizing/losing their private data online . afraid from cracking or looking for personal safety ! Do they have choices to skip out this project and don’t list their own profiles ? or it’ll be obligatory service ?
