OT: (or not?) What is the best PHR Personal Health Record service?

[joe at actionline.com]

There are PHR services that allow you to manage (edit and makek
corrections) if there should be any erroneous information in your
medical records.

Also, most PHR services do have very good security provisions
so that only authorized persons with applicable passwords
(your own doctors, etc.) can access and or add data to your records.

That is the reason for the original question that I posted in
trying to find which of the many dozens of PHR services might
be the most advantageous.
