Google Launches Google Health

Google has officially launched Google Health. Anybody can sign up for the free service a google.com/health, log in and to import their medical records, fill prescriptions, and get lab results, set up text-based pill alerts, keep track of immunizations, and get pertinent news alerts.

Users can opt to share their information with partners. Sharing at this point is all or nothing.

“What absolutely will not be the case – no Google Health user will ever find their health information as search results on Google,” a Google spokesman said. “That information is yours and only you have access to it.”

Google says it will not advertise on the site, and it will not share your private data with anyone without your authorization.

You can read more about the service at the Google Health FAQ.
