I was the sysadmin for a small medical practice for a while. Patient privacy was the one reason I was (and remain) dead se against storing practice medical records on the cloud.
If anything every got out, I would have been liable. I fully accepted that. But I had full control.
If anything stored in the cloud ever got out, I still would have been liable, but I wouldn't have had any control. For sure, the cloud storage provider would have disclaimed liability and I'd still be the man on the spot.

It is ingrained in my head that the patient's privacy is of utmost importance (second only to the actual care I'm providing).
Having a camera in the room just runs counter to that idea, and makes me uncomfortable.
