Hi Bert, There are certainly some implementations that allow for hard-deletes of compositions and Ehrs. This is a complex area as GDPR does not confer an absolute right for medical info to be forgotten (as I understand it). It does allow for copies of the record to be retained for medico-legal purposes.
However, in our cloud-provider setting, we absolutely need to be able to hard delete Ehrs, as people may simply want to switch CDR providers. As a data processor, we have no right to keep t record, as long as it is available via another provider.
