I had come across your blog in doing some research. I believe MedeFile can help many individuals, especially the seniors you write of that are facing the issue of obtaining, and maintaining their own PHR.<BR/><BR/>In brief, MedeFile is an electronic medical records management service that collects, digitizes, stores, and organizes all of our member's ACTUAL medical records. MedeFile gives you the member, the ability to access your complete medical history 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from virtually anywhere in the world. In addition, we provide each BASIC and Premium MedeFile member with a MedeDrive. The MedeDrive is a portable USB device that works with any Windows based PC. This device simply plugs in to a USB port and instantly auto loads that member's vital emergency information (Allergies, Medications, Medical Alerts, Emergency Contacts, etc). The MedeDrive also has a password protected area that contains all of that member's ACTUAL medical records as well. The MedeDrive does NOT require any internet connection in order to view its contents and can be updated anytime with no additional charges. <BR/><BR/>MedeFile also offers our members an area designed to help members track and monitor healthcare measurements such as blood pressure, cholesterol count, BMI,. etc. Moreover, we also allow members to utilize our 24 hour a day reminder service for doctor's appointment s and medication reminders.<BR/><BR/>Our system also provides for the storage of Vital Documents. These may include your Advanced Directives (Living Wills, DNR's, Health Care Proxies), as well as other important documents. MedeFile has been featured on various news segments with regard to the devastating Hurricanes we have seen in the recent years. MedeFile may also qualify as a medical expense under a Medical Information Plan in IRS Publication 502. <BR/><BR/>It is important to note that MedeFile does the work for its members. We contact the providers and collect the records on their behalf. I urge you to visit our website at www.medefile.com for more information. Please feel free to contact me with any questions that you may have. Thank you in advance.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
