Supportive PHR-S functions are the subset of PHR-S functions that assist with the administrative and financial requirements associated with the delivery of healthcare. Supportive PHR-S functions also provide input to systems that perform medical research, promote public health, and seek to improve the quality of healthcare delivered. All functions within the Supportive Section have an identifier starting with “S”. Example: For example, Supportive PHR-S functions will allow the PHR Account Holder to electronically query local or national registries, provide the ability to participate in a registry and obtain updates from the registry as to the PHR Account Holder status within that registry.
