What is a medical document?
A medical document means any document containing information related to health care, medical studies or drug trials. Medical documents are prepared by doctors or medical experts who specialize in medical examination and treatment, as well as the study of public health.
In fact, we may encounter many medical documents on a daily basis, such as:
- Medical records and health records
- State management documents and laws on medical examination and treatment
- Medical scientific reports and medical articles
- Drug trial records, drug labels and medication instructions
Medical documents can be in hard copies or electronic form depending on the intended use of related parties.
