Welcome to this, a new day in health information as the American Health Information Management Association begins its largest -ever effort to spread the good news about personal health records.

As AHIMA’s chief executive officer, it is my great honor to welcome you here to myPHR.com, your newly-remodeled “home” for the biggest—and we believe the best—compilation of information related to the understanding, development and maintenance of a quality personal health information profile—a personal health record or PHR.

AHIMA’s myPHR.com is your one-stop personal health information resource; whether you’re stopping by to learn about PHRs, learn more about PHRs or learn how to start one—it’s all here:

• A consumer-friendly guided tour
• Health forms in English and Spanish
• An online newsroom
• Videos of real-life PHR testimonials
• Our public service announcement
• A glossary of terms
• Links to additional resources

So come on in and look around. Get your new day in “patient-powered” personal health information started the right way. PHRs are a great way to help protect or repair your health and the health of those you love most.

Sincerely

Linda Kloss
Chief Executive Officer
American Health Information Management Association
