Abstract
Relying on papers to document medical records hinders the United Nations’
goal of creating a more sustainable world for future generations. With the excess usage
of paper, the world is contributing towards global warming. Medical staff tends to take
a long time to pull out a patient’s medical record when it can be done in a matter of
seconds. Being paperless does not immediately mean it is effective or transparent, as
medical providers don’t usually share the content of a patient’s medical record with the
patient itself, let alone a different medical provider. Another issue is the lack of
transparency within the healthcare sector. This research focuses on the need for
Malaysia to have an e-Health system, preparation and participation towards the e-Health system, and the security of migrating towards the e-Health system.
