We emphasize that the physician is committed to guarding everything he learns about the patient's health as a medical secret. A medical secret is every information that he learns about the patient, his or her personal, family and social circumstances in the course of performing his medical duty.

A physician or a responsible person in a medical facility, company or other legal entity engaged in a health-related activity is required to ensure that the records stored in electronic media are protected against alteration, premature destruction or unauthorized use.
Upon request, the physician is required to provide the patient with all medical records needed to diagnose and treat his/her illness. The medical records are folders containing the status, history of the disease, as well as photos.
