Stud Health Technol Inform. 2023 May 18:302:356-357. doi: 10.3233/SHTI230138.

Abstract

Patient-Accessible Electronic Health Records (PAEHR) are particularly disputed in mental healthcare. We aim to explore if there is any association between patients having a mental health condition and someone unwanted seeing their PAEHR. A chi-square test showed a statistically significant association between group belonging and experiences of someone unwanted seeing their PAEHR.

Keywords: mental health; patient-accessible electronic health record (PAEHR).
