Recent Federal guidelines promote an individual using Personal Health Record. A PHR is a tool that an individual can use to collect, track and share past and current information on own personal health (see more here). This information can be very useful to a care provider especially when someone is visiting a place out of health network. More importantly, it is you who are ultimately responsible for making decisions about your own health. A PHR can help you accomplish that. 'Healthy Choices' component of myCHOIS has been designed for that purpose. See more at: http://www.choice4fitness.com/
