Two PHR Stories today
April 4, 2007
At the Fourth Information Technology Summit, the Interim National Coordinator of Health Information Technology Robert Kolodner stated that we are close to a tipping point in Health IT which will be helped along by consumer demand for PHRs. His main caution was that the public must be able to trust online medical records.
The second story has to do with the National Governor’s Association State Alliance for eHealth met on March 30 to discuss progress on ehealth including PHRs and RHIOs. An archive of the webcast is available including testimony by Holly Miller, MD. Liability issues in ehealth are addressed and recommendations for limiting liability were presented.
