Google Health Pilot Project - To Be Announced

FYI: Google Health Pilot Project - First Official Overview

Posted by Alan Newberger, Engineering Manager (The Official Google

healthcare industry have worked hard to make results of doctor visits,
prescriptions, tests and procedures available digitally. By using the
GData protocol already offered in many Google products, and supporting
standards-based medical information formats like the Continuity of
Care Record (CCR), our health efforts will help you access, store and
communicate your health information. Above all, health data will
remain yours - private and confidential. Only you have control over
when to share it with family members and health providers.
