My contribution

The outcome

Physical medical records are the default in most clinics, and they're fragile. When care is scattered across paper files, both patients and providers pay the price.
Bulky & Easily Lost
Paper files are hard to store, hard to carry, and permanently at risk of damage or loss.
Fragmented Handoffs
Switching providers means re-explaining history from scratch, leading to repeated tests, delayed treatment, and higher costs.
Emergency Blind Spots
An unconscious or disoriented patient can't recite allergies or chronic conditions, and that silence can cost time doctors don't have.
