    I’m aware of the regulations, I’m an Epic analyst and been in the world of healthcare since 2009 (used to be an MLS). Watch me decline right out the door and immediately contact patient relations. Put your fucking phone away. Healthcare has managed for quite a while without them.

      The doctor will very likely have no choice but to send you to complain to someone else. Not recording will violate policy if that’s what their system is, and it’s an entirely reasonable policy to have. Medical interactions are heavily documented for a reason, and it’s because mistakes can literally kill people.

      All your records are already electronic, and a notebook is a far bigger security risk than a cell phone is. It’s not encrypted. Anyone can walk away with it.

        I disagree. I don’t consent to a doctor having his personal device out recording. Doesn’t seem like either of us will be changing our minds, so I’ll bid you adieu.
