LOS ANGELES, CA, Jan 10, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --MMRGlobal, Inc. (OTCBB: MMRF), a leading provider of Personal Health Records (PHR), MyEsafeDepositBox storage solutions and electronic document management and imaging systems for healthcare professionals, today announced that its MyMedicalRecords.com PHR will be part of the ng Connect Program's service concept, TeleConsult, storing patients' medical history, including wirelessly transmitted biometric data for use by patients and their medical team. The new connected user experience will be unveiled at the 2012 Consumer Electronics Show, January 10-13, in Las Vegas in the Alcatel-Lucent Booth #31412. MyMedicalRecords, Alcatel-Lucent and other ng Connect members will demonstrate this concept and the multi-industry open innovation program (see Alcatel-Lucent news release issued today http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Alcatel-Lucent-The-ng-Connect-prnews-3185967142.html?x=0).

As part of TeleConsult, the MyMedicalRecords Personal Health Record allows users to have access to a patient's PHR and collected biometric data. After the data is transferred, users can also communicate with healthcare professionals through video conferencing. Featuring a group of ng Connect members that combine their products to follow the progress of a surgery patient through recovery using telemedicine, TeleConsult is a self-care program encompassing remote monitoring of biometric data, oversight of treatment compliance, access to personal health records and frequent communication between patient and medical providers. The widespread availability of broadband access and the enabling technologies provided by this ecosystem provide the patient with a sense that their medical provider is always there to assist them regardless of where they are located. The information from TeleConsult populates itself in a MyMedicalRecords PHR for physicians and patients to manage care in real time.

"Health and wellness is an industry poised to take advantage of next generation technologies and TeleConsult is a great example of a potential service. MMRGlobal is the leader in securely transmitting medical records, and their contribution to TeleConsult ensures that consumers are not only getting instant medical advice, they are also getting it safely and completely protected," said Jason Collins, Vice President, Emerging Technology & Innovation at Alcatel-Lucent.

According to Robert H. Lorsch, Chairman and CEO of MMRGlobal, "We are proud to be part of the ng Connect TeleConsult service concept in what we believe is the first demonstration of a service that would allow patients to have vital data from monitoring devices sent to their MyMedicalRecords.com Personal Health Record on a real-time basis for sharing with their physicians and other healthcare providers. Because MyMedicalRecords.com can connect with any health IT product or service globally, being an ng Connect member exposes our flagship product to potential strategic opportunities with other members. At the same time, it affords MMR the opportunity of integrating and selling other members' products and services to our customers."

Yesterday, MMR also announced that it is unveiling a prepaid Personal Health Record card under its MyMedicalRecords brand in the Alcatel-Lucent Booth #2931 at the CES Digital Health Summit. The card will be offered at retail stores throughout the United States and will be redeemable for a Personal Health Record account on the MyMedicalRecords.com platform.
