Why is an electronic personal health management important for me to have?
LifeOnKey™ was specifically designed to answer consumer and patient needs (as endorsed by the organizers of Personal Health Conference in Washington, DC, October 11, 2005, which included the Agency for Healthcare Research & Quality, The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and The Markle Foundation):
(1) Individuals should be able to access their health and medical data conveniently and affordably
(2) Individuals should be able to authorize when and with whom their health data are shared
(3) Individuals should be able to designate someone else, such as a loved one, to have access to and exercise control over how their records are shared
(4) Individuals should receive easily understood information about the ways their healthcare data may be shared
(5) Individuals should be able to review which entities have had access to their personal health data
(6) Electronic health data exchanges must protect the integrity, security, privacy, and confidentiality of an individual’s information.
What is HIPAA?
In the USA, the HIPAA Privacy Rule established national standards to protect individuals’ medical records and other personal health information.
What is Interoperability?
In the context of personal health information the term refers to the ability for diverse technological systems and organizations to communicate or inter-operate to collect an individual’s health data (e.g., from electronic data stored by a specific health provider or in a medical device).
