Paper Summary

The article describes a method to control who can access personal health records online. The method uses standard database queries to quickly determine if a user is allowed to view or change specific health data. By simplifying a complex access control standard, the method makes it easier for patients to manage who can see their information. Testing showed that the method works fast, even with a large amount of data.
