S36 - Late Breaking Session - About Microsoft® HealthVault
About Microsoft® HealthVault
Session Chair: Patricia F. Brennan, Bert van Hoof, Microsoft Consumer Health Solutions, Seattle, WA

Microsoft® HealthVault is a new software and services platform aimed at helping people better manage their health information. HealthVault puts the consumer in control of their health care by creating a private, secure data storage and sharing platform that will enable seamless data exchange between hundreds of different health applications and devices. HealthVault Search is a powerful new vertical health search tool designed to work with the platform. It intuitively organizes the most relevant online health content, allows people to refine searches faster and with more accuracy, and eventually connect them with HealthVault-compatible solutions. Biomedical informaticians can use the HealthVault SDK to create innovative new consumer health tools, like personal health records and devices, that allow people to take meaningful health-related action in the course of daily living.

Bert Van Hoof, Director Consumer Health Solutions at Microsoft, will describe and demonstrate HealthVault, with commentary by members of the AMIA Open Source (OS-WG) and People and Organizational Issues (POI-WG) Working Groups.
