Pella (Iowa) Regional Health Center patients now have access to their health data directly on their iPhones through Apple's Health Records feature, according to a Dec. 2 KNIA-KRLS report.
Apple built the Health Records app based on Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources, which is a standard for EHR data sharing. Patients who use the app can view their medical information from participating organizations on a single platform.
Data available on the app includes medications, procedures, vitals and lab results, and participants receive a notification when their health records are updated.
