Lynxcare creates a personal Certified Health Summary™ from a client’s original medical source documents.
- The only way to produce a reliable Summary of a person’s medical records is to professionally abstract the relevant information. No computer program can do this.
- Many companies store or transmit “Personal Health Records” (PHRs) that clients populate themselves. Lynx provides a professionally verified Summary from original documents.
- Lynx Certified Health Summary™ are produced by nurses and physicians. Lynx’s “Review-by-Two™” process improves accuracy by subjecting each finished Summary to two professional reviews.
- Lynx delivers Certified Health Summaries to participants in the form of an electronic file (.PDF format). Copies are available on a secure server, with password-protected Internet access.
- Lynx's Certified Health Summary™ is formatted to be immediately readable by, and useful for healthcare professionals and Lynx participants. It can also be imported as an electronic file into modern Electronic Medical Record Systems (EMRs).
Scores of companies provide software or web-based tools for recording Personal Health Records. PHRs have significant benefits for almost every segment of the population, including:
- Adults and children who have extensive medical histories
- Military, law enforcement and emergency services personnel who are exposed to high risk of injury
- Travelers, people relocating to new cities, changing health plans, changing doctors
- Students leaving for college away from home
- Elderly parents facing retirement, assisted living or long term care
- Caretakers of disabled individuals who need medical records to facilitate their care
The problem with any PHR is how the information becomes entered into the database! In most cases, users are left on their own to perform data entry, often finding that the software provided (particularly web-based) is cumbersome, slow and awkward to use.
