Secure Services Corp. Launches Consumer Gateway for SHAPE PHR™ HIPAA-Compliant Personal Health Record Available to Consumers

Downers Grove, IL, October 11, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Secure Services Corporation launched the consumer gateway for the SHAPE PHR™, personal health record, today. SHAPEPHR.com provides consumers an opportunity to purchase the SHAPE PHR directly via the internet.

What can the SHAPE PHR mean for someone? For a starter, no more annoying clipboards at the doctor’s office. No more fear that, in an emergency a drug allergy or medication will be overlooked. And, studies show that quality of care is enhanced and costs are reduced for patients, medical providers and insurers. The SHAPE PHR provides individuals with a portable and organized medical record that they can access at the doctor’s office down the street or the hospital across the country.

The SHAPE PHR answers the three most critical questions that consumers have:

1. “Will my medical information be private and secure?”
The SHAPE PHR is HIPAA-compliant – their competitors have not made this a priority. Also, they have built the SHAPE PHR around a robust secure SSL connection using 128 bit encryption to ensure that data is private and secure while moving through the internet. And, they have the most secure military-grade Tier One data storage.

2. “Who owns and has access to my medical data?”
The SHAPE PHR is owned by the individual. The individual decides which medical providers and others may have access to it. There is no question that an employer or insurance company – or anyone – can gain access to the information without the individual’s express permission.

3. How does information get entered into my SHAPE PHR?
Each user of the SHAPE PHR receives a unique personal fax number. This fax capability allows individuals, doctors and medical providers to fax information into the SHAPE PHR. Also, doctors who elect to participate in the SHAPE program have agreed to add encounter and other medical data to the SHAPE PHR on behalf of their patients.

“Our SHAPE PHR brings us closer to having a Personal Health System by working with doctors, hospitals and other providers to communicate and input information into the PHR. These connections, with the patient at the center - and with the patient’s permission - maintain a more complete record of a patient’s care and allow other providers to have a more complete picture of the patient’s health care,” stated Lester H. Keepper Jr, CEO of Secure Services Corp. “And, we have the extra advantage of tying the SHAPE PHR to our SHAPE Card™, the most secure and powerful smart card available today,” Keepper stated.
