    "content": " That is what I was going to add: how technology actually works. If possible, in future, I propose that they find a way to connect this system with the one for the registrar of persons so that those who lose their lives in hospitals can also be immediately recorded, so that we can issue their certificates. Of course, the agency has its work cut out for it because for them to ensure that the digital data of patients is protected is a tall order. We have to look at it this way: many of the systems we already have in this country are sometimes prone to failure. Look at almost all our state corporations, NHIF, National Social Security Fund (NSSF), and Pay as You Earn (PAYE); the minute many people log in to do their end-of-month returns, suddenly, most of those systems do not work. You can imagine the number of patients. If many patients log into the system, it must be very well done. We must be cautious about the technology and system we put up because that system may also be a problem. We also have the issue of hackers. We have had our systems hacked in the past. We have to be very careful that we do not have any possibility of people hacking into the health system because, if that were to happen, they could corrupt data and, of course, jeopardize our peoples’ lives. It is something that we need to look into. For this health and digital system to work, we must also have Information Communication Technology (ICT) and Wireless Fidelity (Wi-Fi). We are talking about our dispensaries being able to send data to hospitals in the city, Level 4 and Level 5. Where is this digital connection? We were promised a digital connection in our markets, but it is still not there in our villages. So, as we are coming up and proposing to pass this, this will likely end The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.
