Summary:Objectives: The objective of this study is to review the safety and privacy issues of electronic medical records (EMR). Methods/Statistical Analysis: Secondary sources from Springer Link, Science Direct, Emerald Library, IEEE Explorer Digital Library, Taylor & Francis Online, and EBSCO host databases were used to reviews relevance articles. Findings: Intersection and inter-reliant components of the healthcare system as well technology-induced errors were documented as the safety issues in the EMR implementation. Additionally, information sharing and access control were recognized as the important privacy issues.
