Traditionally, health records have been stored in paper folders at the physician’s consulting rooms - or at the patient’s home. With the rise of technology there have been many offerings of ways to store health records in a safer and better way by using Personal Health Records (PHRs). Web-based PHRs are stored in various ways including the use of Cloud computing. This brings numerous benefits including accessibility and efficiency but there are also privacy and security concerns. This paper proposes guidelines that can assist PHR providers in choosing a Cloud Service Provider that will store PHRs in a secure manner.
