- Abstract
The article focuses on the challenges and benefits of providing patients with immediate access to their medical records through digital platforms. Topics include the potential confusion and anxiety patients may experience from interpreting complex medical information on their own, the regulatory push for transparency under the 21st Century Cures Act, and the positive impact of real-time access on patient empowerment and self-management in chronic conditions like diabetes and heart failure.
