Personal Health Records (PHRs) - Overview

Personal Health Records (PHRs) - Overview: "PHR is short for 'Personal Health Record'. A Personal Health Record is more than just a copy of all your medical information, collected from all of your doctors, hospitals, and health insurance providers etc. It also contains all of the other information which is so important to your health that doctors are usually unaware of - like your dietary habits, sleeping habits, activities (such as smoking, or skydiving), your symptoms, and reactions to medications, etc. It contains anything YOU want."
