Its a community of patients and a private EMR (eletronic medical record). The user is encouraged to participate in providing health-data, and in the community approach to storing data (which is private) and sharing experiences, thoughts, and questions. The premise is that patients of disease-XYZ are not the first to suffer from disease-XYZ, and can benefit from the experiences of other patients. Also, the system hopes to introduce ranking systems for physicians, hospitals, treatment-types, etc.
