Dear Tiffany,
Thank you for your interest in HealthFrame and for your inquiry
regarding internet access.
Records for Living appreciates and respects our customers' desire for
privacy. When you use HealthFrame, you are entirely in control of how
you choose to
share your medical information.
HealthFrame is
not attempting to transfer your medical record
information over the internet. There are instances, however, when
HealthFrame
does access the internet. Here are some examples:
- If you click on a link to an external web site
- HealthFrame links to many reputable reference websites such as
MedlinePlus. If you click on one of these external links, HealthFrame
will access the internet.
- Some of the reports and OpenHealth Service (OHS) plug-ins:
HealthFrame supports an extensible set of services and reports, some of
which are supported by external websites. Here are a couple of
examples of OHS plug-ins that access external web sites:
- If you use the Send PHR... or Receive PHR... functions (File
menu), HealthFrame will attempt to connect to whatever server you are
trying to connect
This is the list of user-initiated actions that would lead HealthFrame
to access the internet. One final case that may not be obvious to
users, is that HealthFrame is configured to automatically check for the
availability of software updates. Records For Living makes minor
releases freely available to our customers and we try to make it easier
for you to update to a newer version, by having the software
periodically check. If this default setting is a concern to you,
please disable it by de-selecting the option - as shown in the image
below.
Thank you once again for your interest in HealthFrame and please let us
know if we can be of additional assistance.
Support Team
