Dairyland Introduces Personal Health Record Solution
Dairyland Healthcare Solutions along with Healthcare Anytime announced today a new web-based Personal Health Record solution. “We see
the product as a complementary offering to our Healthcare Information System, one that healthcare organizations can make available to
their healthcare communities as a value added service,” said Alan Grundei, President & CEO of Dairyland. In most cases, a complete
record of all of a person’s personal health information cannot be found in a single location or consistent format. The Personal Health
Record will enable users to easily manage their health information in a secure and confidential online website.
Benefits of the Personal Health Record solution include:
- Enables users to consolidate health information from many sources: doctors, hospitals, pharmacies, insurers, and others.
- Empowers patients to take a more active role in monitoring their health and healthcare decisions.
- Provides healthcare providers valuable information that can help improve the quality of care.
- The structured environment makes it easy for patients to enter, organize and manage information.
- Patients or healthcare providers have immediate, worldwide access in case of an emergency.
Personal Health Records may include; personal identification, health insurance information, current medications and dosages, immunizations
and dates, allergies, important test results, eye and dental records, and miscellaneous information users may want to include about their
health – such as exercise regimen, any non-prescription medications and any counseling they may receive. A consumer survey conducted by
the Foundation for Accountability (FACCT) showed 70 percent of on-line Americans are interested in the benefits of using one or more
aspects of an on-line personal health record. “We see a lot of value in Personal Health Records,” said Grundei, “They are an effective
way for patients to become more knowledgeable, proactive and participative in their personal healthcare.”
