Big data in the clinical system is the abundance of the health care records collected from various sources like the electronic health record. One potential benefit of using big data is that it leads to error minimization and precise treatment of the patient (Raghupathi,2014). Since there are enough records on a patient, there is the possibility of predicting the outcome of a specific treatment; hence the provider gives a more personalized care treatment. The potential risk of using big data is the security issue that arises due to unauthorized access to data (McGonigle,2017). The big data contains the patient’s personal information and health history, which can be very damaging if disclosed to an unauthorized individual.
