Just trying to wrap my head around what you're saying. Are you in favor of this because it can also cover you from legal scrutiny for mistakes made while providing care?

He's saying that it's not in the public interest for his patients medical issues to be easily available.

I'm thinking it's more about ensuring the patient gets medical privacy. Medical information in the wrong hands can wreak havoc.

Patients expect and deserve their medical privacy, which would get violated when a police camera records them receiving treatment. He is in favor because patient's private medical records shouldn't be automatically made part of the public record just because a cop walks in the room.

It is ingrained in my head that the patient's privacy is of utmost importance (second only to the actual care I'm providing). Having a camera in the room just runs counter to that idea, and makes me uncomfortable.

  I was the sysadmin for a small medical practice for a while. Patient privacy was the one reason I was (and remain) dead se against storing practice medical records on the cloud. If anything every got out, I would have been liable. I fully accepted that. But I had full control. If anything stored in the cloud ever got out, I still would have been liable, but I wouldn't have had any control. For sure, the cloud storage provider would have disclaimed liability and I'd still be the man on the spot.

You are making all sorts of assumptions when the views of others were clearly expressed in previous comments. You seem hell bent on your own talking point regardless of that the actual comment's point was. Either you are being dense or you are trolling...
