Personal HealthKey Pilot Program

Categories: Empower Consumers and Providers

Blue Cross Blue Shield of Delaware launched the Personal HealthKey pilot program to explore the effectiveness of using portable personal health records (PHR) stored on USB flash-drive technology to track and manage members’ health and wellness information.  Participating members are provided with USB flash-drives containing their personal health information and will be asked to participate in three surveys over a 12-month period to gauge the utilization and impact of the devices.  The pilot will identify opportunities to provide members with useful information that may improve their overall health, as well as determine the effectiveness of the personal health key to enhance health awareness and care coordination.
