Google, Cleveland Clinic Teams On A Pilot To Manage Medical Records

Alan Newberger, of Google has a post about his thoughts on building tools that will help manage personal health information more effectively. Google recently entered into an agreement with The Cleveland Clinic. A large academic medical center, to run a pilot program to manage patient records more effectively.
"Cleveland is just the first of many healthcare providers that will securely send medical records and information via Google APIs at your request. We've been hard at work collaborating with a number of insurance plans, medical groups, pharmacies and hospitals. While this pilot is open initially to just a few thousand patients, I see it as an important first step to show how Google can help users get access to their medical records and take charge of their health information."
