24th Annual Digital Health Awards Recognize Best Online Health Resources; Patients Can Store and Share Medical Records With Family and Clinicians

ROCKVILLE, Md.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Health technology pioneer DrFirst today announced that its mobile health records app for consumers, Huddle Health, is a Digital Health Awards winner for 2022. As a hub for health records, Huddle Health makes it easy to maintain and share health and insurance information, past and current medication lists, care plans, and more. Patients and their family caregivers can track prescriptions and keep their providers updated, and can easily keep track of everyone in their care circle without having to access different patient portal accounts.

Recognized alongside Fortune 500 healthcare organizations, Huddle earned a bronze award in the Mobile Digital Health Resources category for providing one of the best digital healthcare experiences for consumers.

“We developed Huddle Health to give people better access to their medical records and the ability to share them with family caregivers and clinicians, so patients have the information they need at their fingertips,” said G. Cameron Deemer, president of DrFirst. “We appreciate this recognition as we continue to develop Huddle with new features and functionality to keep consumers engaged at key points in their healthcare experience.”

Huddle was one of more than 700 nominations submitted this year to the Health Information Resource Center (HIRC), which organizes the awards. Click here to see the full list of winners.
