The WhatMeds app enables consumers covered by Medicare Part D or Medicare Advantage plans to review, store on their device and share at every point of care their current medication list. The app also generates personal drug safety warnings and provides access to MedlinePlus drug information. To generate the medication list, Medicare prescription drug claims billed to Medicare by pharmacies are downloaded from Medicare. This medication data goes directly to the user’s device without traversing a Humetrix server and no user accounts are created with Humetrix. The claims are processed by the app locally on the device and all information is encrypted and stored within the app. Humetrix does not have access to this encrypted information and does not collect any user personal health information. The app enables the user to share their medication list by creating a SMART Health Link QR code which, when scanned by a physician, nurse, pharmacist or other person, will display the user’s current medication list on that device. By scanning the QR code, EMR system applications which have implemented the SMART Health Link standard will also be able import the consumer’s medication list and personal identifiers as a PDF file or FHIR R4 medication resource. The user can annotate their medication list to prevent the sharing of any medication in the list and can also annotate medications with any adverse reactions they have had to a medication. When the app creates this QR code, the data is locally encrypted on the device with a key inaccessible to Humetric and stored in a Humetrix Cloud server for 24 hours or less and then is automatically deleted.

Frequently Asked Questions
My Health Application is being managed by the CARIN Alliance, which is a multi-sector alliance led by distinguished risk-bearing providers, health plans, pharmaceutical companies, consumer platform companies, health IT companies, third-party applications, and consumer-advocates working collaboratively with other stakeholders in government to overcome barriers in advancing consumer-directed exchange across the U.S.
The CARIN Alliance manages only this website; the CARIN Alliance does not endorse, certify, or manage any of the applications listed on this site. You should make your own judgment as to the application that is best for you based on information provided by the application vendors.
The vision of the CARIN Alliance is to rapidly advance the ability for consumers and their authorized caregivers to easily get, use, and share their digital health information when, where, and how they want to achieve their goals. Specifically, we are promoting the ability for consumers and their authorized caregivers to gain digital access to their health information via non-proprietary application programming interfaces or APIs.
We envision a future where any consumer can choose any application to retrieve both their complete health record and their complete coverage information from any provider or health plan in the country in a secure manner while protecting their privacy and individual consent sharing preferences. This website helps to advance the ability for consumers to access an application of their choice based on their own individual data sharing preferences.
The CARIN Code of Conduct is a set of industry-leading best practices that the companies offering these applications have voluntarily adopted to protect and secure your health information. We strongly recommend that you read the application’s privacy policies and terms and conditions to ensure that you select an application that you feel would protect and secure your health data in a way that is consistent with your individual data sharing preferences.

These applications came from the CMS Blue Button 2.0 site, EHR application vendor websites, CARIN Alliance members, and other public sources. Right now, the only thing that the CARIN Alliance has done is list the websites. Our initial goal is to focus on transparency and making sure the individual selecting an application knows where to go to find an application. We are also trying to make each application’s privacy policies and terms of service more readily available to the individual. Over time, we want to provide more consumer-friendly ways to help individuals understand how these applications are using their data.
