Patient Centric Cybersecurity - Excerpt

Over the last several decades there has been a shift in standard models of healthcare both in the United States and globally. Patient centric approaches in health care reorient the power relationships of physicians and patients. This shift elevates the needs and challenges of the patients and builds a more robust and communicative relationship to foster improved health outcomes. Recently, Nataliya Brantly, VT STS PhD Student and Dr. Aaron Brantly, Department of Political Science, Tech4Humanity Lab Director, took up the issue of patient centric care and focused on expanding it to encompass cybersecurity concerns.
