AllOne Health GroupSM First to Launch
Personal Health Records for Mobile Phones to Health Plans
AllOne MobileSM Gives Consumers Instant Access to Health Care Records –
Anywhere, Anytime
WILKES-BARRE, PA – April 21, 2008 – The mobility, access and control of information that
consumers expect has finally arrived for health care. AllOne MobileSM is an
industry-leading mobile application from the AllOne Health GroupSM (AHG) to place
personal health records (PHR) at consumers’ fingertips through their mobile phones.
AllOne Mobile saves PHRs in a secure environment and links to users’ mobile phones, giving them
well-organized, easy-to-use, 24/7 mobile access – without the need for an Internet connection. Users
can manage and share their PHRs with physicians, hospitals, clinics and emergency personnel helping to
improve medical outcomes.
In April, AllOne Mobile launched to the Hospital Service Association of Northeastern Pennsylvania
(HSA) and its health plans. HSA is the first health plan in the nation to adopt this technology. It
will enable HSA to provide its members with real-time access to health information that can be securely
shared with physicians, hospitals, pharmacies and other health care providers.
In addition to benefiting health plan members, AllOne Mobile will be used by employees of major
businesses and the general public to better manage their health and well-being.
“AllOne Mobile provides users immediate access to information buried in paper folders and computer
files,” said William C. Reed, president and CEO of AHG. “It’s a groundbreaking solution that provides
consumers access to critical health and insurance information at the click of a button and allows them
to share it securely on their terms anywhere, anytime.”
AllOne Mobile will help consumers and their families by allowing them to do things such as:
- View and send insurance coverage information,
- Track prescription drugs,
-
Catalog allergies, or fax a child’s allergy records to the school nurse,
-
Send health information, including a family health history, to a physician, and
- Access health tips to better manage chronic conditions.
“We are witnessing the next generation of health care,” said Dr. Drew Palin, M.D., vice president of
product development at HSA. “Why is it that we can instantly check the score on any sports contest in
the country, but can’t confirm a child’s drug allergies? If we can give our members a better way to
share their medical history, test results and medications, we believe we can significantly reduce time
to treatment and medical errors.”
AllOne Mobile is particularly valuable:
-
In an emergency when stress can make it difficult to recall key medical facts and quick decisions
are critical;
-
For members of the “sandwich generation” responsible for managing the health of both aging parents
and young children (Permission can be granted to view and manage family members’ health information.);
-
To college students, retirees and others who live in a different state or country for a significant
part of the year, leaving key medical information behind;
-
For business travelers or vacationers who may need care far from home and access to doctors’
records; and
-
To patients facing health care decisions that could have significant financial implications who need
access to their insurance coverage information.
“By offering AllOne Mobile to health plan members among a suite of other health plan options, we’ll be
able to provide convenient and reliable health information anywhere and anytime, as well as help
individuals better manage health care costs,” Palin added.
AllOne Mobile data is stored behind a password-protected encrypted channel through a partnership
with Diversinet Corp. (OTCBB: DVNTF), a leading provider of wireless security applications. The
application is downloaded wirelessly to phones and is automatically updated with the most current
security and features available. This level of security and control gives users the confidence and
comfort to create, manage and enhance their PHRs using the mobile phone or the Web.
