Abstract

Computers Family Practice Female Humans Male Medical Records Systems Computerized Physician-Patient Relations Primary Health Care Remote Consultation
The digital age is coming to the health space, behind many other fields of society. In part this is because health remains heavily reliant on human interaction. The doctor-patient relationship remains a significant factor in determining patient outcomes. Whilst there are many benefits to E-Health, there are also significant risks if computers are not adequately integrated into this interaction and accurate data are consequently not available on the patient's journey through the health system.
