Shane is concerned that a landlord might learn about his hospitalizations and use that information to deny him housing. The relevant healthcare technology issue is the privacy of electronic medical records, which contain sensitive health information and should not be disclosed without proper authorization. Remote care and online contact with a doctor do not address his concern about who can access his records.
