Abstract: Abstract A significant contributor to high-quality healthcare is current, accurate information about the patient. With an increase in use of electronic health records in the United States, one might be forgiven for imagining that missing or tardy health data is a thing of the past, but there is a problem. Health information is stored in silos, and information transfer is sometimes difficult, even in 2014. Technologies exist that can improve the portability of electronic health records, and this study surveys a few of those technologies from the patient perspective to determine which is most likely to meet the need.
