The document discusses the challenges of fragmented healthcare records and multiple patient portals. It proposes that Patient Knows Best provides a single shared patient record to overcome these issues. The solution connects healthcare organizations and allows secure sharing of patient data. It has been implemented across the UK and led to benefits like improved patient safety, experience and self-management as well as efficiencies for services. Evaluation found the solution improved outcomes and had a compelling financial case, with costs savings of up to £5 for every £1 spent.

• Difficult to connect
• Technical problems
• Legal issues
• Patient excluded
• No one feels in control

4. Patient Portals
- create even more fragmentation
• Multiple sites with multiple
logins
• Data in different places for
the patient
• No single source
• Patient does not own the
data, they can only “see it”

7. How others
tried to get there
from here?
Stuck in their silo as other silo incumbents prevent
their spread, e.g EMIS for GPs, Cerner for hospitals.
New silo with only patients’ data, e.g. Google,
Microsoft, Apple.
Stuck in their regions with no consistency of approach
and no cross-border information sharing
INSTITUTIONAL ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS:
CONSUMER PERSONAL HEALTH RECORDS:
REGIONAL RECORDS:
New silo with patients’ data from one place, unable to
consolidate information, e.g. Patient Online
‘TETHERED’ PATIENT PORTALS:
