The healthcare industry is growing rapidly in the United States because of the increased number of the aging population, shared consciousness of personal health problems, and medical technology improvements. As a result of the growing industry of healthcare, new emerging issues occur in the collection and storage of patient data, and new ways to process, analyze and distribute these data. This has exposed various security threats to personal health data (Lee, 2022). In this case study, we will discuss the issues Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC) challenges while implementing EHR systems which are used to analyze and monitor health records by the users such as doctors, organizations staff, and pharmaceutical agencies(Kaul et al., 2020), and we will analyze these issues and provide solutions and recommendations to solve them.
