What is Microsoft HealthVault?
HealthVault is a web-based, open platform that enables people to gather, store and manage their families’ health information, and share it with their physicians and healthcare providers in a very defined way. HealthVault gives people the means to play a more active role in their care, by giving them tools to compile information, track and monitor progress, complete health-focused tasks, educate themselves about health issues, and connect disparate elements of their care. It offers a central place to build health histories you control, that’s portable and enduring and lets you connect with a host of relevant applications that “speak the same language”.
