On May 19, 2008, Google made the much anticipated announcement of the Google Health site. The American Heart Association’s Heart Attack Risk Calculator developed by Medicom Digital is one of the links available from the Google Health site. This calculator was demonstrated by Google as part of its site announcement press conference, because the Heart Attack Risk Calculator is one of the first two-way online data transfers implemented by a service using Google Health. The secure transfer of data through the click of a button makes the Heart Attack Risk Calculator easier to use, and is an excellent way of encouraging consumers to understand one of their most important health risks.
