∙ 11y ago"Purging" probably isn't the right term to use for corrections to the patient's Designated Record Set (DRS). In medical records, corrections made by the CE or caregiver don't involve erasures -- they do strike-throughs which can still be read. The patient is not automatically notified of this.
Purging inaccurate information on the behest of the patient however can involve a complete erasure. In this case, however, as the patient initiates this action, they are already aware of it.
