The MYFITNESSLIFE system was
designed as an aid to the Physician as a collateral benefit.
All its features have been created for aiding the Medical
Practitioner. This data facility for the Doctor comes with a
unique benefit because the Patient is the custodian and
creator.
The Patient has the greatest incentive to attain
perfection in the assembly and maintenance of their own
medical data. The medical file is thereby not dependent on
the attitude or competence of a third-party clerk found in
an Office Practice or Hospital ward.
All the information, and more, of the Physician’s
standard patient medical application is provided by the
Subscriber. It is in a condensed format for only those items
that are applicable or have activity – past or present.
As an example, there is a section that defines the
patient’s current and past complaints (symptoms). This
complements the medical history of the Patient and their
family and it will be their current medical status.
This system emphasizes tracking prescribed Medication
compliance. Disease State Management is widely endorsed by
most insurers and medical professionals as a major program
in minimizing the cost of hospitalization due to disease
complications.
This online tracking is just one part of a comprehensive
multi-indicator tracking program for vital measurements that
can be taken by the Patient at home. Blood Pressure and
Pulse, Blood Sugar, Body Temperature, Weight, Food Ingestion
(by calories, carbohydrates and fat content), cigarette
cessation and pregnancy status are all indicators that the
MYFITNESSLIFE tracks.
The Patient, with your instructions, can record their
daily activity for each of these indicators and the system
can present them in an orderly format with analysis and
summarization.
The tracking data is presented in a graphical format with
several of the indicators plotted against time for thirty
days.
The system also shows an analysis of trends in the
indicators with color (green and red) representations to
highlight progress or regression by the patient.
All this information provided without any record keeping
required of the Physician. Also it is an effective tool to
influence the Patient’s involvement with prescribed
therapies.
All the information that you require of a new patient is
contained in their data file as the first and foremost item
when they open their MYFITNESSLIFE account. This is called
the Patient Profile section. It contains the medical history
of the Patient and a significant amount of his or her family
history. A full accounting of each event is provided so that
you can see more than you will find on your own office
application form. The Patient has the opportunity to provide
detail on every condition reported by time, place,
disposition and physician.
The profile also contains the Medication history, known
allergies, medication intolerance, vaccinations taken with
dates of inoculation, etc. In the same general area you can
also find the list of recent and past complaints and
symptoms experienced by the patient.
If you are interested in what other Physicians the
Patient have seen, this is also provided in an Appointment
section where dates, place, Caregiver and an explanation is
provided. This log also contains planned visits and
appointments as well. From this list can be found telephone
contact numbers if you need to consult or acquire additional
information.
A number of other useful features are provided as well.
We encourage you to navigate about the system to become
acquainted with its value and benefits.
Everyone recognizes that your time needs to be husbanded
as much as possible. A good idea is to ask your Patient to
authorize your trusted nurse or assistant to perform further
research you may need regarding this Patient. Very few
Patients would refuse such a request.
