“…One study reported that more than 86% of medical consumers feel the need for a PHR. 6) However, to this point, the standalone PHR has dominated the field and only a small number of patients can access medical information. Consequently, there has been continued interest in an EMR-tethered PHR because it automatically enters medical information and is accessible to all patients.…”

“…Since most medical consumers desire access to a PHR, an increasing number of hospitals intend to provide the PHR service. 6) As a pilot service, a number of hospitals began providing medical information (e.g., outpatient/medication results, hospitalization information, diagnostic or imaging exams) on USB or CD rather than in paper form. However, the service is in an elementary level, and it is difficult to provide it when the PHR is not linked to the EMR.…”

BackgroundPersonal health records (PHRs) are web based tools that help people to access and manage their personalized medical information. Although needs for PHR are increasing, current serviced PHRs are unsatisfactory and researches on them remain limited. The purpose of this study is to show the process of developing Seoul National University Bundang Hospital (SNUBH)'s own PHR system and to analyze consumer's use pattern after providing PHR service.MethodsTask force team was organized to decide service range and set the program. They made the system available on both mobile application and internet web page. The study enrolled PHR consumers who assessed PHR system between June 2013 and June 2014. We analyzed the total number of users on a monthly basis and the using pattern according to each component.ResultsThe PHR service named Health4U has been provided from June 2013. Every patient who visited SNUBH could register Health4U service and view their medical data. The PHR user has been increasing, especially they tend to approach via one way of either web page or mobile application. The most frequently used service is to check laboratory test result.ConclusionFor paradigm shift toward patient-centered care, there is a growing interest in PHR. This study about experience of establishing and servicing the Health4U would contribute to development of interconnected PHR.

“…No disclosure of personal information should be permitted in any given process. According to a study by Kim et al [ 15 ], people who are interested in their health are willing to pay more to the individualized health service as long as their personal information is protected; privacy is a greater concern than fees.…”

BackgroundAdvanced information technology can be used when developing diagnostic and treatment strategies to provide better care for diabetic patients. However, the levels of need and demand for the use of technological advances have not been investigated in diabetic patients. We proposed and developed an individualized, ubiquitous (U)-healthcare service using advanced information technology for more effective glucose control. Prior to our service initiation, we surveyed patient needs and other pertinent information.MethodsDuring August 2009, we conducted a 34-item questionnaire survey among patients with diabetes who were older than 40 years in two certain hospitals in Korea.ResultsThe mean age of the 228 participants was 61.2±9 years, and males made up 49.1% of the sample. Seventy-one percent replied that they wanted individualized healthcare service, and they also wanted their health information to be delivered through mobile devices such as a cellular phone or a personal digital assistant (40.4%). Most patients had never heard of U-healthcare services (81.1%); however, after explaining the concept, 71.1% of participants responded that they would use the service if it was provided. Despite their willingness, participants were concerned about technical difficulty in using the service (26.3%) as well as the cost of the service (29.8%).ConclusionThe current study suggests that more than 70% of diabetic patients are interested in using U-healthcare services. To encourage widespread use, the application program or device of U-healthcare services should be simple, easy to use and affordable while also including a policy for the protection of private information.
