Abstract
In a global computer network, a system for processing personal health records is disclosed. The system includes a web-based application providing an application web server that does not store personal data. A user starts a new session using the application web site and begins entering medical data. During the session, with the user'"'"'s data in transient storage, the application web site can perform health risk assessments and search other databases to provide information relevant to the user'"'"'s health. At the end of the session, the user downloads a file that saves all of the data. Next, the application web site erases the user'"'"'s data from the web site. The user continues data entry in the future by uploading the saved file. Since the user keeps the data, no identification of the user is necessary and privacy is preserved.
