Medical Accountability in the Digital Health Era
The doctor was trusted and dominant. The patient was uninformed, grateful, and believed in fate. The patient presumed that good intentions, good training, and good facilities, automatically lead to good results. Amicability was mistaken for quality control.

Today’s doctors practicing Digital Health deal with quality control, audits, protocols, regulations, guidelines, and frequent inspections.
