Why do I need a Google Health or HealthVault account to use ZipHealth?

ZipHealth stores your data in your PHR (personal health record), not on our website. If you use your BlackBerry, iPhone or Android phone to read email, then you know that your phone simply provides you with mobile access to your existing email account; it does not insist that you start using a new email account. We feel the same way about your health records. You decide where you want to keep your health records, and we will log your data to that account. This way, your data will be yours to keep, even if you were to stop using ZipHealth.

You can read more about ZipHealth and PHR at ZipHealth/WhyPHR.

If ZipHealth does not support your PHR, please tell us, and let your clinician, PHR provider know that you would like to have ZipHealth work with their system.
