Hi, For Medical records, We need to have some techniques for privacy and security of medical records. Easiest option is as you mention we can have clear record functionality. It may be not recommended because we are going to lose history of records.
Other options is special encryption for database. It is really important for current healthcare datbases. Another option is mixer of above two, After each cyle(can be per day/week) all records will clear from current database and move to encrpted database. That database can access with some special permissions or some securtiy measeure. Any comments or idea?
