HEALTHTRACKS: A PARTNERSHIP FOR ELECTRONIC PERSONAL HEALTH RECORDS

" Given the proven effectiveness of these tools to manage chronic conditions and improve health outcomes, we recommend not only broader adoption within the health plan community, but also enhanced use of these tools by the provider community in reaching treatment decisions at the point of care. Recognizing the benefits personal health records (PHRs) offer both to consumers and providers, the health plan community has developed a model PHR to enable individual patients and their providers secure, timely access to important health information, such as allergies, medications, and patient history."

American health insurance companies are promoting PHRs actively . Hopefully, Indian health insurance companies will start doing so soon !
