A report on the data to be stored within private databases

      You are the information technology (IT) manager of an 80-bed long-term care (LTC) facility. The Board of Directors has asked the Chief Information Officer (CIO) to develop a report about private databases (e.g., Medical Information Bureau) and doctor–patient privilege. The CIO informs you that this is the perfect opportunity for you to begin taking more of a leadership role in the company and asks you to create the report. The goal of the report is to summarize what kind of data would be stored within private databases and whether the information is protected by specific regulations and doctor–patient privilege.
