 Not necessarily. Most hospitals will now delete your data after 7 years, so if you want to go back and get your own data, it’s gone. There are also many countries that have not yet moved to electronic records, where our approach can be a more sovereign way of owning your health data, instead of relying on centralized servers… @illuminodes is doing this in El Salvador for example… 

This is part of our discovery and understanding who wants to have their own record of their health… 
 Interesting.  I don't often or ever go to doctors, so I don't have medical data I guess, so I'm clueless as to current systems and the pros and cons.
