This article discusses the impact of the proper medical record keeping on ensuring patient safety in the process of providing healthcare services. The study presents the principles of keeping, processing, storing and ensuring the access to the medical records resulting from the applicable law and established jurisprudence views, as well as the way in which these guarantees affect the protection of such sensitive patient interests as health, life and privacy. The article also indicates the areas in which the patient's right to medical records is the most frequently violated and the trends in this regard, as well as it formulates postulates aimed at increasing patient safety in the treatment process.
