Abstract

In today’s world, health and care data are hold by doctors, patients, pharmacists, physician assistants, medical lab technicians, smart devices, etc. In order to provide high quality health care, it is necessary to integrate an individual’s health and care data into a single place. Such integration not only helps patients and doctors but also assists researches in making significant studies. Personal Health Record (PHR) technology is a strong candidate that can be used as an integration point. Compared with other health care areas, literature shows that there is a lack of researches that benefit anticipatory care area. Thus, this study demonstrates the capacity of PHR as an integration point in supporting anticipatory care area. This paper introduces a designed prototype that uses PHR to support anticipatory care. The prototype also includes aspects from a personalized care planning process model and a shared decision making model. After testing against a patient scenario, the results demonstrates the ability of PHR to strongly support the interested stakeholders. Interested stakeholders include patients, health professionals and patients’ families and friends. PHR as an integration point resulted in better planning, coordination, shared decision making and controlling of patient’s health condition . The interested stakeholders would be able to make plans that evolve as the patient’s health condition evolves. Any patient who needs anticipatory care can benefit from this study as it is not limited to certain diseases. In addition, this study presents fruitful results that help researchers and developers in the area.
