SMART Health Links

One scan. The health information you choose.

SMART Health Links turn a QR code or secure web link into a simple way to share selected health information. HealthScores.ai uses this open standard to help a visit begin with useful context instead of another clipboard.

You stay in control of what you share and who receives it.

The standard

What is a SMART Health Link?

A SMART Health Link is a QR code or web link that shares the health information you choose, using an open standard that compatible health systems can read. The code doesn't need to hold your entire medical record. Instead, it carries the information needed to find and unlock an encrypted package that you chose to share.

A healthcare professional scans the code and opens the selected view. If their software accepts FHIR, their staff can bring the data into their own system.

What travels through the link

Useful health information, packaged so systems can understand it

Encrypted files One or more, behind a single link
FHIR data Common healthcare format
SMART Health Cards Common healthcare format

A SMART Health Link can point to one or more encrypted files. The open standard supports common healthcare formats, including FHIR data and SMART Health Cards.

With HealthScores.ai, the goal is to make the most relevant information easier to reach when a member chooses to share it.

How HealthScores.ai uses it

The open standard becomes a member-controlled sharing experience

SMART Health Links handle the secure delivery. HealthScores.ai handles what goes in: it gathers your records into one place, builds the right view for the moment, and leaves you in charge of who gets a link and when. See how member-controlled sharing works.

A scan can open the selected picture

Instead of asking a patient or caregiver to remember every detail, the receiving care team can begin with information prepared from the member's record.

Medications Allergies Conditions Care team Insurance Emergency contacts Advance directives

The exact information available depends on what's in the member's record and what the member chooses to share.

Protection by design

Secure sharing without asking people to understand the security machinery

The SMART Health Links protocol includes built-in protections. Some choices, such as passcodes, expiration, or long-term updating, depend on how a particular link is configured.

Encrypted every time. The files behind a SMART Health Link are always encrypted, even when the server holding them is trusted.


The key stays in the link. The key that unlocks your information travels inside the link itself, not on the server that stores the package.


Passcodes limit guessing. When a link requires a passcode, the server caps the number of wrong attempts over the life of the link.


Links can expire or stay current. A link can carry an expiration date, or be set up for long-term use so the information behind it can update over time.
