Gérard, I think you are wrong. A patient in the Netherlands can require
under specified conditions total physical and logical removal of his data
from a health care information system .

If you want I can represent you a link to the law - text which says so, but
because that is in Dutch, and therefor not readable for others, and also
not interesting for others I rather take that communication to private
level instead of public discussion group level.

Best regards
Bert Verhees
