Why OMI?

The Open Medicine Institute is the ONLY organization built from the ground up to put people/patients first in driving actionable knowledge and engagement for patients.  We have created a neutral, safe place for patients to collect, curate and share their own medical data and more while helping to contribute (if they desire) to a community of science.  With our OpenMedNet platform, patients control their own data and how it is shared.  Patients can decide what research (if any) or other activities they want to participate in.  

And best of all, the OpenMedNet online platform is free for all patients.

Community Base

OMI believes that community driven science can be among the best research there is, so we encourage you to (whenever you are able) donate your data, donate your samples.  


Please support the philanthropic research efforts in the community of the Open Medicine Institute via OpenMedAccess (www.openmedaccess.org) our non-profit partner.

OpenMedNet

Store, track, communicate your health records for free. 

OpenMedNet is a resource developed together with patients, for patients to improve their health and help users in the era of patient-driven precision medicine.  The patient always comes first with OpenMedNet.
OpenMedNet is a free, private service for patients.  OMN puts the patient in the driver seat of all their health data and lets them collect and share other data too.  The patient is in control and knows what they share and to whom.

OpenMedNet is your platform for collecting, curating and sharing your health and other data however you want to.  OMN allows you to control the relationship and how your health information is used.  OMN supports multiple data formats especially patient uploaded data.  
You can store your records, manage your medications and supplements, track parameters that are important to you or your doctor, find relevant diagnostic and treatment info, map your information over time, participate in a community of research (if you want to), and share your information with your doctor and others.

Get started today in building your long-term record.  You can share it or export your data any time you like.  OpenMedNet is a community infrastructure that's here to stay.  OMI takes the long view on people and data.  We help you put science back into your health.

Patients First, Privacy First

At OMI, patient privacy is at the top of the list.  Patients may participate while sharing or hiding their identity from us or others (you decide).  We do not supply your identified data to outside organizations unless you know about it and approve.  The patient is in control.

Privacy and security are at the top of our list when it comes to patient data.  We place the highest value on keeping your information where you want it.  We do not share any data with anyone without your permission.  While many people want to share their data with others and form a community, not everyone will.  We respect that.  It is each individual patient story that makes OMN what it is, without that we can't move forward, so we're committed to maintaining your trust and respect and are always open to hearing your thoughts and concerns.
