"pieces of information scattered among the offices of multiple physicians, "
Really? What is our Primary Care Physician doing?
And do you really want a central repository of your medical records for the Gov to poke into?
What is the benefit? Do you think the ER doc is going to read that stuff and take it for the final truth. If they do, can you say law suit?

What is the best PHR Personal Health Record service?
Actually, this may not be OT as part of the question is whether
*open source* options may be (or not) better than commercial
options.
Google abandoned Google Health.
Several PHR services have shuttered.
I would never trust micro$shaft with my health records.
So what is the best option now?

Personal medical records typically involve pieces of information
scattered among the offices of multiple physicians, prescription
data at different drugstores, folders full of receipts and lab
reports in an overstuffed file cabinet at home. A central repository
for all your health information from family history to lab results
to cholesterol readings gathered from all the disparate sources, and
ways to share it with doctors or other people that you deem
appropriate.
