Proposed PHR Architecture for Saudi Arabia Health Services

Mafawez Alharbi, Yousef Qawqzeh.

Abstract
This study addresses the necessity to develop a new personal health record (PHR) system, which represents a benefit, compared to the existing electronic health record (EHR). To bring this necessity on stage, we proposed the development of a globally accessed PHR system in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Therefore, the proposed PHR system is targeting the development of PHR theme that involves a patient centric tool that is mostly controlled by the individual (patient). Due to several issues
including but not limited to travelling and far distances between cities in the kingdom of Saudi Arabia, the PHR system should be immediately available electronically. By the achievement of this stage, all other working EHR systems (in all health care providers) should be linked into one integrated PHR system. This vision once implemented could deeply help individuals maintaining their health and be an active party in their health management.

Key words: PHR, EHR, patient-centric, global access
