In my home country, _most_ of the files are electronic (EMRAM stage 6 for the main hospital network, covering most of the country https://www.himss.org/what-we-do-solutions/digital-health-transformation/maturity-models/electronic-medical-record-adoption-model-emram https://www.himss.org/what-we-do-solutions/digital-health-tr...). I can see any specialist (almost any GP) and they'll get limited time access to my entire patient history. I don't have to worry of getting a second opinion from someone who "doesn't have my history". Plus, I get insight into this data myself through an app (or web platform), where I can view the scans and take them to someone outside of the network if I want to. Pharmacies will also start sharing data, so a GP can enter the data in a system which any Pharmacy can then enter (with your electronic ID), so no need for paper subscriptions either. It just gives me peace of mind. :-)
