Florida Health eBook My Florida eBaby Book.

Within the next 30 days, Florida's 2.6 million Medicaid recipients will be able to access both Florida Health eBook and My Florida eBaby Book at www.FloridaHealthFinder.gov by using their Medicaid ID number. Hospitals and community partners will pilot the new tool over the next two weeks before it is made available to all Medicaid recipients. In the first phase of the program, individuals will be able to enter and access their personal health information online. Medicaid recipients will be able to track information about their health-care visits, procedures, medications, immunizations, allergies and more. Other features will include:

Family History - Assists users in tracking their family history, and allows them to print and share this information with their health care provider.
Health Tracker - Users can chart their personal health information such as height, weight, blood sugar levels, blood pressure, and more.
Wallet Card - Encourages users to enter emergency contact and key health information to be printed and carried with them at all times.

A library of more than 6,000 decision-focused health topics in plain, uncomplicated language, is integrated with the personal health records. The health content educates Medicaid recipients and helps them make better decisions with their doctors.

In the second phase of the program, the agency will populate each Medicaid recipient's personal health record with claims data from services paid for by Florida Medicaid. The recipients will be able to view the personal health record in both English and Spanish. The agency plans to partner with hospitals, county health departments, and community organizations across the state to promote the program.
