ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS IN INDONESIA: A LAW AND POLICY ANALYSIS

Abstract

 The Policy of Privacy of Electronic Health Records (EHRs) have transformed healthcare in Indonesia, aggregating patient data for comprehensive medical care. However, they introduce privacy concerns due to electronic data, network transmission, and multi-user access. Patients worry about unauthorized access, misuse, and digital errors, impacting their privacy, social standing, and insurance. This research explores stakeholder attitudes and risks surrounding EHR data sharing in Indonesia, with a focus on Payers, Patients, and Providers (the 3Ps). The purpose of this paper is to fill in some of the gaps in the existing research on the topic of EHR privacy and effectiveness. It incorporates a variety of research techniques, a critical realism viewpoint, insights from many stakeholders, and an examination of the trade-off between privacy and effectiveness. The purpose is to learn more about the many factors that play into EHR privacy concerns so that we may better address them via legislation and practice. A literature study is used in this research. The critical realist perspective illuminates underlying forces. Stakeholder-specific insights are drawn from Payers, Patients, and Providers. The privacy-efficacy trade-off is analyzed to comprehend its impact. This research offers a nuanced understanding of EHR privacy concerns in Indonesia. It highlights unique stakeholder perspectives, the privacy-efficacy tradeoff, and the role of human factors in data breaches. Structuration Theory provides a comprehensive framework, allowing us to navigate these multifaceted issues. Ultimately, this analysis contributes to more informed policy decisions and practical solutions in Indonesia's evolving privacy data management landscape
