Consumer Education and Engagement Collaborative
The number of physicians and other health care providers who use computers to access and share your medical information is growing rapidly. The purpose of these electronic health records (EHRs) is to maintain the highest quality of data that is secure, private and accessible. Georgia wants to raise consumer awareness of the benefits of electronic health information and the security and privacy safeguards that can protect it.
