Privacy is a much greater concern in the developed world than in the developing world.   Take a country in Africa, where the problem is delivering care effectively, with the records of past treatments per patient.   There is less of a concern about privacy because people are dying, and the infrastructure is a patch work of efforts across possibly a number of NGOs and government programs.

Our focus is on ensuring doctors have the information they need to treat an individual.  Privacy is important, but secondary.
