Metadata: Patient name, Doctor name

Data Protection

  • ✅ Data never leaves hospital system
  • ✅ No external API calls
  • ✅ No cloud uploads required
  • ✅ Session-based validation
  • ✅ HIPAA-compliant

📈 MONITORING & MAINTENANCE

Weekly Review

  • Review export statistics
  • Check user feedback
  • Monitor performance metrics

Monthly Analysis
