Did you know that the United States has a health information czar? America’s first HIC was Dr. David Brailer, and below is a short interview he conducted with the Wall Street Journal where he talks about the importance of online medical records.We couldn’t agree more, and are encouraged to have another influential voice in the medical community advocating for patient access to their medical history.
The Navigating Cancer website offers cancer patients a secure platform to record, edit and share their medical history with their health care team, saving them time filling out the same forms and helping them organize all their documents in one place. In addition, patients that use our Daily Health Journal while in treatment have a complete treatment record summary that they can share with their primary care physician when they move from the treatment phase of their cancer journey to the monitoring/survivorship phase.
