Making money with a PHR: " PHRs to be made available by AHIP and the Blues will cover 200 million individuals by the end of 2008. The data will be based primarily on claims received by the insurance company and consumer inputs on such things as immunization and family medical history.
This will spur the software industry to begin cranking out applications which could be used by consumers to maximize the value of these PHRs, and to convince physicians and hospitals to make a long-delayed start at ramping up the office-based electronic health records systems which will be the prime beneficiary of PHRs in the era of real-time medicine."
The demand is there ! The companies who can supply this need will make lots of money !
