CMIO magazine just published an extensive article on the use of PHRs and patient portals. Yours truly had the pleasure of being interviewed for the article (while I was still with Children’s Hospital Boston) and they ended up using quite a bit of our conversation in the final piece – so much so that I had to make sure they actually credited the people who actually rolled out CHB’s PHR!

At Beacon 16 we’re still very focused on portals for both patients and providers. Beyond formative work on the Indivo Personally Controlled Health Record and the Dossia PHR platform, we’ve also built portals for providers, allowing community physicians easy and intuitive access to the parts of hospital records that are most important to the referring physicians in the community.
