Your Personal Health Record: Today’s Tools for Great Health.

What exactly is your Personal Health Record (PHR), and how does it help you and your health professionals? We have put together a list of frequently asked questions to assist you with a clearer understanding.

What is the Personal Health Record?

The Indian Health Service Personal Health Record helps you access your health information. You can track medications, get your lab results, contact your healthcare provider, and much more—all from the privacy of your personal computer and mobile device.

Who can use the Personal Health Record?

Any patient within the Indian Health System can register to use the PHR. As part of the registration process, patients must verify their identity at an Indian Health Service, Tribal, or urban healthcare facility.

When should I use the Personal Health Record?

The PHR is a tool that provides you with timely access to your health information. It is not a substitute for meeting with your healthcare provider. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go immediately to the closest emergency room.

Please Be Advised: PHR Maintenance.

The PHR is updated on Thursdays between 10 and 11 p.m. EST. During this brief window, you may find logging into your PHR account slow or challenging. We apologize for any inconvenience.
