(2007-10-04) Dossia Phr

While it was stalled for months by troubles with its original vendor of choice, the massive PHR project backed by the likes of WalMart, ATT, SanofiAventis and Intel is back underway again. The Doss Ia Consortium has hired the Children's Hospital Informatics Program at Children's Hospital Boston to take over development of the PHR, which will link hospital, physician and pharmacy data for millions of employees. CHIP had previously developed Indivo, a personally controlled health record, with grants from the CDC and National Library of Medicine (NLM).
