Microsoft® HealthVault™ is a free Web-based platform that enables patients
to collect, store, and share health information with hospitals and physicians -
using enhanced security and privacy measures - in ways that can help healthcare
providers increase efficiency, reduce errors, and improve care†.
HealthVault provides a foundation on which a broad ecosystem of partners - from
medical providers, to health & wellness device manufactures, to health associations
- can build innovative new health and wellness management solutions to help put
people in control of their family's health.

"MedStar Health, through its strategic relationship with Microsoft, is piloting
a consumer health portal for one of its service lines. Built on Microsoft HealthVault,
it empowers our patients to manage their own healthcare data. With 24x7 access to
their record, they decide with whom they share it - sending it to healthcare providers,
and even friends and family members who serve as caregivers. Offering a place to
store and share patient data in a security-enhanced environment is one of the ways
we show our commitment to being the trusted leader in caring for people and advancing
health."
Luis Machuca
CEO, Kryptiq Corp.
"Kryptiq's Connect IQ is the leading secure messaging platform, used by over 1,200
physician organizations nationwide. By integrating with Microsoft HealthVault, we
enable patient-to-physician collaboration that is vital to the success of a consumer
healthcare platform. It gives doctors faster access to patient information, eliminating
paperwork and unnecessary phone calls."
Peter Kuhn

to transform healthcare. We are working together to deliver solutions to hospitals
that facilitate secure access to personal health information, resulting in better
care through a robust patient experience. Our role is to help hospitals improve
patient satisfaction, clinical quality and best practices."
