Pie in the Sky: Personal Health Records (PHR)

Please imagine that everyone pays taxes, donates to charity organizations, and actively monitors their health. This will be wonderful. There will be sufficient funds for health care, research expenses and both will be greatly reduced, and educational and other efforts will be released. The Personal Health Record (PHR), working in conjunction with electronic medical records (EMR), is an ideal alliance to promote healthy people, but we are not there. To be honest, I do not think PHR will take root, but in this paper I push my pessimism into the closet, hide the keys, eat my pie (and like lime), and the utopia of the land Walk on.

Q: What is personal health record (PHR) and patient portal? A: Personal Health Record (PHR) is a lifelong health information resource that is managed and owned by an individual and is used electronically, universally available. The PHR is different from the EHR system maintained by the healthcare provider organization in that the PHR is maintained by the patient. These people own and manage information within PHRs coming from multiple healthcare providers and individuals themselves. PHR can contain various data, but usually contains the following information.

An individual health record (PHR) is a health record in which a patient maintains health data and other information related to patient care. This is in contrast to the more widely used electronic medical records. It is managed by an institution (eg hospital) and contains data (eg billing data) entered by clinicians to support insurance claims. The purpose of PHR is to provide a complete and accurate summary of the personal medical history available online. The health data on the PHR may include data from the device, such as results reported by the patient, test results, and a passive collection of radio scales or smart phones.

This Personal Health Record (PHR) increases the doctor's electronic health record / medical record and is maintained by the caregiver or autistic autistrapher. PHR provides a comprehensive health record that is owned and maintained by patients or caregivers. As population increases, new information is added, old information is kept as past history, so "grow"
