Huge HIPPA violation. No consent from patients. Doctors that do this should lose their license.
nah. As a software engineer I use software that makes my work easier. especially if the approved tool is a piece of garbage that actively interferes with my work.
For a doctor, having tools that work when you need them to is vital. Doctors managed fine without all the tech bullshit decades back. I think the people to blame here are admins.
strange that hospital admins can’t give the proper tools for doctors that they resort to using whatever they can scrounge.
Respectfully, this isn’t a software engineering issue, it’s a legal and policy one. It sucks if the doctors aren’t given what they need but that doesn’t mean they can just unilaterally choose to give confidential patient conversations and info to an unapproved 3rd party to do who knows what with… At all. That’s not me saying this, that’s literally the law. There’s a reason many companies only allow vetted LLMs with guardrails to access company intellectual property and customer/patient information.
