Guest Article: Is Patient Generated Health Data (PGHD) trustworthy enough to use in health record banks?

The push towards shifting the patient’s role from a passive recipient of care to an active member of the care-team looks set to gain further legislative backing. Earlier this year, the Health IT Standards Committee, along with The Joint Commission and ONC, laid out recommendations for integrating patient generated health data (PGHD) into Stage 3 Meaningful Use requirements. To see what this might mean to health IT and med tech vendors, I reached out to Zach Watson of TechnologyAdvice, who covers EHR related news, along with business intelligence, and other topics.

There’s no difference between mHealth & telemedicine, come to ATA May 17-20 in Baltimore to learn more
