A Personal Health Record (PHR) is a history of health information about yourself or someone you care for that’s created and maintained in a safe and secure electronic environment. It can only be looked at by you or those you select. PHRs contains information provided by you and your healthcare provider, and it's all kept in one safe place. By keeping a complete, updated and easily accessible PHR, you ensure that healthcare providers will always have access to the information they need to make educated decisions about your care and your family's care.
