Juhan’s HealthCard, originally uploaded by juhansonin.

I serve with Juhan Sonin on the CCHIT Personal Health Records Workgroup. Juhan is an expert in usability and design of personal health services (compared to myself, for sure) and is helping the group understand the potential for certifying for usability of personal health record services.

Juhan notes that he uses his own personal health informaiton in his designs, so I wanted to confirm that it was okay to repost here. Confirmation is below. It can be easier than it is today to know the health status of a person, yes? See what you think.

Thanks; I use the HealthCard during EVERY nurse/doc/hospital/insurance transaction. Amazing reactions from ppl.

Anything I post = public and abusable.
All should be CC licensed.

HACK and ABUSE at will.

Thanks Ted,
Juhan

Nifty wallet card by the way. May I post to my blog (I assume yes, since it’s on Flickr..)?
