Cn: Patients' medical records to go online

Posted on March 31, 2008October 24, 2024 by Dissent

Cai Wajun writes in the Shanghai Daily:

Under a project to establish a digital health database for people in the city, residents now can view their medical tests and records through e-mails from www.smmail.cn, a government-run Website.

Yueyang Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine Hospital is the first to participate in the service and about a dozen facilities such as hospitals of Xinhua, Rujin, Renji, Huadong, Shanghai Chest and Shanghai Children’s Medical Center will soon offer the free service at the Website, an online platform launched by the city government in 2004 to provide subscribers with information via e-mail and conduct online surveys.

[…]

In order to protect people’s privacy, only those opening e-mail box at www.smmail.cn through real-name identity card and social security card can apply for the medical information service online, authorities said.

Residents can go to a subdistrict office with personal identity documents for a code to open the e-mail box. Medical facilities will send information automatically to the e-mail box with the same social security card number.
