Dr George Lee returns to discuss the latest medical news. Expect deep insights delivered with generous humour. Over one million patient-related messages are sent each day by doctors in Malaysia’s public hospitals, using chat apps. These messages may often contain confidential information about patients and their medical conditions. We look at patients’ privacy issues and how to use technology to ease clinical communication while protecting patients’ data.
