Medical records are very important records and should not be modified after creation. The current medical records are liable to improper modification. With the development of information technology, electronic medical records (EMR) are used widely. For the EMR, cryptographic primitives may be used to develop techniques to prevent medical record modofication. The introduction of electronic medical records in Korea began in late 1990. Medical Law(Rev. 2002) allowed that electronic documents instead of paper records to be created and kept. The creation and storage of the electronic medical records is an important issue as important in the writing and storage of medical records. Someone proposed that the Trusted Third Party(TTP) may play a important role of ensuring the safety and reliability. But, there are still several problems and anxiety about the storage of Third Party. Medical Law prohibit that non-physician create and keep medical record. And despite of the benefits of digitization of medical records, because of lingering information leakage and hacking, the possibility of modulation, measures to ensure the safety and reliability shoud be still discussed.
