According to Brown, the revamped ‘Google Health‘ dashboard merges together the information of wellness as well as that of health. It means that at a single location user can record and retrieve both the information. He also added that the new PHR is able to maintain notes about specific medication or health condition of anyone. It also facilitates the remove any recorded information or restrict access to unwanted or outdated information. Moreover, now user can also feed their data through their mobiles.
Google revamped its PHR service on the basis of feedbacks received by users and tried more to focus on wellness and wellness goals. It helps to easily record the daily experience of a person and also set the goals.
