HIMSS survey on attitudes about PHR
Two of the more interesting findings from the May 2008 HIMSS Vantage Point report [pdf]:
- 49% of respondents have agreed that the biggest barrier that they face to the
use of a personal health record is a concern that their information will be private and
secure. - 92% of respondents indicated that they, the patient, should be the owner of data that are captured in a personal health record.
