Abstract
We compose, propose, and discuss several requirements to support transparency in Medical Data Sharing Systems. Transparency is a property that suggests openness and compliance with policies, practices, and processes employed to secure data, and it is believed to promote good quality of service in healthcare. Our requirements indicate how transparency can be realised on modern medical data sharing systems such as those managing electronic health records.
