Let's see: 10k/record x 28M = $28e11 or 2800 bn. Quite a bit more that Finland's GDP in 2019. That kind of debt amounts to a corporate death sentence if ever enforced. Too bad it's only for medical records.

I think you're off two zeros (1e4 $/record * 2.8e6 records = 2.8e10 $, or 28 G$ = 28bn), but your point still stands.
