Online PHR integrates with Google Health to exchange health information with physicians

Fort Wayne, Ind. – May 19, 2008 – NoMoreClipboard.com, an online personal health record system, has launched an online health service that integrates on the new Google Health platform. The integrated service will help users of Google Health deliver their health information and medical records to physicians that are treating them but do not have electronic connectivity. Google Health launched to the public today at an event at Google following a successful pilot at the Cleveland Clinic.

 As a new product, Google Health allows users to store, organize and manage their medical records online.

“There is little doubt that consumers who create Google Health accounts will want to share their health information with physicians to improve the coordination of care,” explains NoMoreClipboard.com CEO William Cast, M.D. “However, more than 80 percent of U.S. physicians do not have an electronic health record system, and have no easy way to incorporate patient-supplied medical records into their practice workflow.”

By integrating on the Google Health platform, NoMoreClipboard.com can help consumers send health records from a Google Health account to their physicians and request medical appointments at no cost. For a nominal subscription fee, NoMoreClipboard.com can print health information onto the specific forms used by the doctor’s office. When the patient arrives for a medical appointment, they avoid the frustration of filling out a clipboard and repeating their entire medical history.

Physicians can also work with NoMoreClipboard.com to automate additional registration requirements that are not part of the Google Health or NoMoreClipboard.com product fields. When the patient directs their records to that physician, additional practice questions are presented online and responses are printed on practice forms.

NoMoreClipboard.com can provide a fax-back, bar-coded cover page that can be attached to documents for paper-based doctors who want to ensure that patients are able to get copies of their medical records in an electronic format. When documents are faxed, the bar code directs scanned images of the documents into the appropriate patient’s NoMoreClipboard.com inbox. Because NoMoreClipboard.com is integrated with Google Health, consumers can download these scanned medical records into their Google Health account.

Consumers can also provide emergency access to their health records with a MiCARD video device – a credit card size wallet card that displays emergency health information downloaded from NoMoreClipboard.com. Consumers can also designate an NMC911 4-digit pin that gives emergency responders one-time, read-only access to their online NoMoreClipboard.com account.

Google Health is available on the web at www.google.com/health.
