Usefulness of Past ROJoson Medical Records in Telemedical Consultation 2

I formally started the structured ROJoson Telemedical Consultation on March 17, 2020.

I do telemedical consultation with me and my patients staying at home using virtual technology.

For the patients whom I have seen before in my clinic in Manila Doctors Hospital and who did telemedical consultation with me for follow-ups and check-ups, I have found it extremely helpful in making an assessment when they could locate the medical records or my medical notes that I issued to them before in my clinic. I asked them to take a picture of the medical records and show them to me online.

Their previous medical records or medical notes are in my clinic in Manila Doctors Hospital. I cannot access them from my clinic in this time of enhanced community quarantine against COVID19. The patients are supposed to keep a duplicate that I have always issued to all patients who consulted in my clinic. (Note: I am probably the only physician in the Philippines who gives a duplicate copy of my clinic notes or records to patients - ready to be refuted though). I have been doing this as early as 2005 or even earlier.)
