Hospitals have specific software, which they can use to allow people to access files from home.
For Techmed 2014 they plan on having an application for people to use to allow people to work from home and access files which, means that they won’t download any of the data which can be a good thing as it more secure because if workers can download the data then if their computer was to be stolen then patient data could be lost and stolen whereas with a dedicated software where people can just view information instead of having to download it is a lot safer
