[May 24, 2012] Elevate to Offer Remote Access to Personal Health Records Using MyMedicalRecords.com Tweet May 24, 2012 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Elevate, Inc., announced it has reached an agreement with MMRGlobal to incorporate the company's MyMedicalRecords Personal Health Record (PHR) service into the Elevate Smart Home Security Suite beginning June 1. "This represents a breakthrough in home security," said Wright Thurston, Elevate CEO. "PHR integration at the level we're talking about is completely new to this industry, and we're excited to be able to partner with MyMedicalRecords to substantially enhance our core security product." According to a release, MMR's patented Personal Health Record products and services provide homeowners and their designees with immediate, secure access to emergency medical information including allergies, medications, blood type and medical conditions, as well as directives and other documents. Through the patented Emergency Portal, Elevate monitoring services can provide first responders with potentially life-saving medical information in an emergency. In addition to emergency access to medical records, the company said each MyMedicalRecords account includes a virtual lockbox that provides 24/7 access to other documents, such as insurance policies, wills, and photos of personal property. Each account can provide information on up to ten family members including pets. Elevate noted it will white label the PHR to residences through its Certifiable Genius network, and will structure the service as both an upsell in every Smart Home Stack configuration that it offers, and as a standalone product. Additionally, the two companies are exploring an expanded partnership whereby Elevate will sell direct to contracted home security monitoring centers, as well as help MMRGlobal explore and manage other direct sales and marketing opportunities. MMRGlobal provides secure online Personal Health Records (PHRs) and electronic safe deposit box storage solutions, serving consumers, healthcare professionals, employers, insurance companies, financial institutions, and professional organizations and affinity groups.
