Paperless banking?Paperless hospital
Very long time I got exausted for hospital stuff and no time to post my blog. At last weekend comes with no assignment to be done .
Today i tried to open an account in HSBC , to my surprise the service is fast. Another shock for me , HSBC acc is without passbook. In other work is a saving acc with only no. and ATM card so the acc no need to be kept somewhere for banking purpose and monthly statement will be post. Bank nowaday moving towards paperless banking with monthly statement . I think some of the Bank like Maybank and Bumuputra commerece also got some acc practice in this way. Actually ,personally i don't like this idea because although is claimed paperless! when the acc is opened , you still need to sign a lot of documents like personal particular, terms and condition. Legally ,Blank and white still needed whathever it is. I like passbook to be keep because i am very forgetful, secondly ,i don't trusted much for whatever i listen(telebanking) or see (internet banking)when involving money although i am writing blog for recording purpose .Thirdly, i think keeping a monthly statement is very troublesome.
When talking paperless, health ministry also moving towards paperless if situation allowed (fund and technology for hospital). That's a pro and cons. The pro is getting more easily access to the record even on weekend ,secondly no need to strain the eyes trying to figure what our colleague wrote(some dr got very diff to understand handwriting). The bad point is if system down or hospital electricity down,the hospital system may be in havoc (if generator cannot support tthe whole database computer or technician unable to fix the system in time). The Mo, Ho will need more time to key in data unless their typing is extremely fast. Hospital will need to print out the data also in case system infected with virus or down and it ends out more paper to keep.
I think it is good at some point particularly for chronic patient but i don't think asseement for A n E is suitable. The adaptation of both paper and computer is still the best means that a good summary and progress for previous admission in the hospital computer database available for all hospital in Malaysia(ideally government and private hospital) . Daily round with paper to save time .It is the best because when we trace old record we need to know old medication, allergy history (if pt unconscious) , lab results (baseline investigation)and past medical history but no the daily round things and normal findings.
This is what i think government should do . Semipaper with computer to optimise the work.

The monthly statement use 'paper' too. You are right, keeping statements is very troublesome, it's like keeping a pile of rubbish. Of all banks, why HSBC?
