Abstract

The healthcare industry is transforming with advanced technologies like EHRs, telemedicine, and AI, promising improved patient outcomes and streamlined processes. However, increased digitization has led to a surge in data breaches, exposing vulnerabilities and raising concerns about patient data confidentiality. Regulatory frameworks struggle to keep up with rapid technological changes, highlighting significant gaps. This chapter calls for a holistic approach to protect patient rights, proposing robust policies, advanced technology use, and ongoing staff training. Key findings include a 42% rise in breaches, regulatory non-compliance, and underused AI security solutions. Emphasizing stringent regulations, encryption, and ethical data management, it aims to integrate innovation with oversight to safeguard patient information and trust.
