Who can authenticate the information in a patient's medical record?

The information in a patient's medical record can be authenticated by qualified healthcare professionals, including the treating physician, nurses, and other licensed practitioners who have access to the patient’s data. Additionally, healthcare facilities often have designated personnel responsible for ensuring the accuracy and integrity of medical records, such as medical record administrators and health information managers. Authentication may also involve the use of electronic health record systems that log access and modifications to maintain a reliable audit trail.
