title: [Experience of Aozora Medical Clinic in EMInet].
abstract: We present here the EMInet (Electronic Medical Information network), a closed information network established by the City government and the Medical Association in Matsudo City, Chiba, Japan. In this network, medical information is shared by multiple certified medical facilities under the informed consent of the patients. The medical record is written only by the physician in charge of the patient and reserved in the server computer. The medical record cannot be rewritten or modified by anyone except the physician in charge of the patient. Other medical professionals can only have access to the record. In the emergency room of certified hospitals, a physician can open the patient's record by using the IC card carried by the patient.
