Today the Mayo Clinic launched a no-cost web site that will allow users to create personal health records (PHRs) using Microsoft’s HealthVault system to store PHR information for anyone who wishes to use it.

Unlike other PHR offerings out there right now (e.g., Google Health and Revolution Health), the “Mayo Clinic Health Manager”, as it is called, will offer customizable information for users. Instead of serving merely as a repository for your personal health information, Health Manager can be configured to offer checkup reminders, suggest individual-specific health screenings, and more.

You can visit the Mayo Clinic Health Manager web site href="https://healthmanager.mayoclinic.com/">here.
