The Health Passport is a booklet/patient-centered, internet-based in which people record the results of different medical tests and screening procedures they have undergone. The data in the Health Passport is not a person’s complete medical record, but it does contain information on patient demographics, doctor visits for which claims have been paid or denied, allergies, lab test results, immunizations and filled medications.
It also educates the reader about what each test or screening involves, what medical conditions it assesses, and how to interpret their scores. While the Passport was designed to be used at health fairs, it also can serve as a brief portable health record, containing information relevant to medical and behavioral health disorders that commonly occur among people living with mental health challenges.
Other uses are as a health education tool in clinics and other outpatient programs. This document provides an easy way for individuals to track and share their health information with those who are coordinating care.
