Massachusetts Blues Team Up With Google on Records

clipped from blogs.wsj.com
Google Health, the Googleplex’s Web portal for medical records, has found its first health insurance partner: Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts.
Members of the plan will be able to log on for access to health-care claims information and portions of medical records starting this fall, the Boston Globe reports.

Patients will be able to view their treatment details on-line based on the insurers’ records. Information in the records would come from doctors as well as laboratories and pharmacies. Other health-care history that doesn’t come from insurance claims records would have to be entered by patients’ doctors, however.
