What is HiGS?
HiGS is a Health Information Gathering System designed to enable our health customers
to assess their health and their health risk. Through our technology and your responses
to our Histories, Assessments, and Body Systems, a Personal Health History
(PHH) is created. This PHH is the sum of information that you have entered, providing
an easy way to communicate your health issues, symptoms, and histories with your
healthcare provider.
HiGS is designed to assist you with gathering information about yourself. It is
entirely web-based, meaning there is no required software for you to install on
your computer. This also means that you can access HiGS anytime, anywhere.
