TAKE OWNERSHIP OF YOUR
HEALTH RECORD HISTORY
WHY TAKE OWNERSHIP OF YOUR HEALTH RECORDS?
For You
Have you ever been in a serious medical situation where instant and secure access to your relevant health history made or would have made an important difference to the care you received? An OmniHealth Vault account could be your solution.
For Your Children
Many chronic and rare diseases don’t appear until adulthood. Access to childhood health history is critical for timely diagnosis when problems arise. Unfortunately, many patients discover their childhood health history is unavailable when they need it most.
If or when your child needs it, will they have access to:
- their childhood medical and health records?
- contact information for physicians or health care providers who treated them as a child?
- information about rare diseases, addiction, allergies, chronic diseases, psychological disorders, or other conditions that run in your family?
- information about treatments that do or don’t work for them based on childhood or family health history?
- somewhere to start when they become responsible for their own health management?
If the answer to one or more of these questions is “no” or “I don’t know”, a Co-op membership will help manage a loved one’s health information. Create a child’s OmniHealth Vault to ensure all their health and medical records, as well as family health history, are there for them should they ever need it.
For Canada
Evidence shows if a significant number of Canadians used a national electronic personal health record system, we could make huge improvements to access to, the quality of, and the delivery of health care services in Canada.
As a Canadian, do you want to:
- save Canadians billions of dollars per year on government health care spending paid for by your taxes?
- have real and effective input into health care delivery in Canada?
- save millions of hours of work per year for health care providers and patients to navigate the system?
- bring Canadian health care into the digital reality of the 21st Century and protect Canada’s reputation for having the best health care available?
- see health care work for more Canadians, including First Nation communities, people who are gender or sexually diverse, or people experiencing homelessness?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, the OmniHealth Vault is for you. You can collect information from any Canadian or international jurisdiction in your OmniHealth Vault and share it with anyone you choose to for the purposes you deem appropriate.
