Instead of a paper chart, many exam rooms are equipped with a computer or laptop to enter information as the exam is conducted. What are the advantages of entering the patient's data into a system like this? What cautions do medical professionals need to keep in mind? 2. Dominic is helping a patient fill out paperwork for an upcoming surgery. The next few forms to fill out are HIPAA forms. The patient asks Dominic what these are for.
