Abstract

The security and privacy of patient information is one of the biggest hindrances to the wide adoption of eHealth systems. For eHealth systems to be successful they must provide protection for patients' privacy while ensuring healthcare professionals are able to access the information necessary to provide appropriate care. Accountable-eHealth systems are a proposed solution to these potentially competing concerns by enforcing appropriate use and after-the-fact accountability measures. We have developed a Web-based prototype to demonstrate scenarios of how both appropriate and inappropriate use of patient information would be handled in an Accountable-eHealth system.
