Our approach

HealthVault helps people collect, store, and share health information with family members and participating healthcare providers. HealthVault connects with a variety of third-party applications and devices to help people manage their fitness, diet, and health data. The product offers a privacy- and security-enhanced foundation on which a broad ecosystem of solution providers, device manufacturers, and developers build innovative new health and wellness management solutions.

As a Microsoft platform, HealthVault offers:

• Developer engagement and tools
• Durable, supported interfaces
• Cross-platform commitment
• High service availability and redundancy
• Long-term investment
• Enterprise footprint
• Respect for partner innovation and intellectual property
• Continuous platform improvement
• International availability

Privacy, security, and data provenance

A commitment to privacy and security of users' information is the foundation upon which HealthVault was built. It provices:

• Authentication: Users can sign in with Windows Live ID, Facebook, and OpenID credentials.
• Authorization: HealthVault obtains user authorization before enabling any data access between an application and a user's HealthVault account data.
• User control: Users control how their data is shared by explicitly authorizing people and applications to access their data. Users can also terminate application access at any time, and can change or delete information in their records.
• Auditing: Data access auditing is built in and available to users.
• Data provenance: HealthVault data contains the source of the data, and applications can leverage this information to determine how to treat data from different sources. Optional digital signatures allow for independent verification of data integrity and source.

Vendor neutrality

HealthVault isn't tied to a particular healthcare provider, health system, device, or technology. Anyone can innovate on and benefit from the platform.

Users benefit from creating a portable health record they own and control. They can easily share information with their doctors and other caregivers, and store data from many sources, such as pharmacies, hospitals, consumer apps, and personal health devices.

The HealthVault platform exposes an XML-over-HTTP interface to web, rich client, and mobile applications. As an app developer, you benefit from interoperability with apps running on numerous platforms, including Windows/.NET, Java, Windows Phone, iPhone, and Android. It's easy to connect to HealthVault from any modern development platform.
