If yes, I'd love to give it a try.

- jrgoodner 12y agoThanks for your question, @smanuel! It's a good one! At this point in time, we're focused more on software/device vendor integrations into healthcare systems. However, this strategy is aimed at eventually making personal health records a reality. With blue button, health providers weren't incentivized to adopt - it's just not a high priority for health systems right now. However, if we could solve the integration problem for health systems while paving the way towards personal health records incentive won't be an issue. The FHIR specs are the latest step in the right direction! (We're big proponents of FHIR) Akido holds real promise to enable personal health records in the near future -- be on the look out!
