> For local storage, a medical institution can say the files don't exist or are inaccessible. This option doesn't exist for online records.

I'm not sure if that's a good example of why local is better than online, since by stating to the courts that something doesn't exist (when in actuality it does)is lying to the courts...I'm no lawyer, but I'd imagine that doing so is punishable. I think the benefits of online medical files far outweigh the offline component for many reasons.
