Why do women's voice matter in healthcare? One reason, the FDA did not include women of childbearing years in studies until 1996.
Our founder, Tracey Welson-Rossman, talks a little more about why women's patient reported outcomes is so needed in today's healthcare world.

Why Patient-Reported Outcomes Are Key to Advancing Women’s Health
This recent article in Pharma Times highlights the importance of patient reported outcomes in pharma research https://magazine.pharmatimes.com/collections/37023148-095f-11f0-972e-42010a800019-3el5/380b39f7-095f-11f0-972e-42010a800019-kfxk?fullscreen=false
Women—particularly those who are pregnant or breastfeeding—have historically been underrepresented in clinical trials. This has left significant gaps in our understanding of how treatments affect women across different life stages and health conditions.
Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) are essential. They capture the real-world impact of treatments—symptoms, side effects, and quality of life—directly from the patient’s perspective. Yet, without robust participation from women, especially during pregnancy and lactation, we miss out on valuable insights that could lead to safer, more effective care.
Positive change is underway:
✔ Inclusive trial designs are making it easier for women to participate, reducing the burden and increasing accessibility.
✔ Patient input tools and engagement strategies are ensuring that women’s voices are heard from the earliest stages of research.
✔ Collaboration among industry, regulators, and advocacy groups is driving progress toward more representative data and better health outcomes.

The spectre, the shadow, the shock to the system! Yes, folks, this time we are focussing on the accumulation of humanity’s biggest dreams and worst nightmares. It’s AI time! And we’re talking about AI healthcare, AI public health, AI hospitals, AI pharma and AI patients. It’s the force of ne...

Everyone in healthcare wants the same thing: better outcomes, lower costs, smarter systems. But here’s the problem: most data platforms are missing the most critical voice—the patient’s.

In this clip, Journal My Health founder Tracey Welson-Rossman explains why what happens between appointments matters just as much as what happens during them especially for people managing chronic conditions.

The insights that come from everyday symptom tracking, emotional states, and quality-of-life changes don’t live in traditional systems. They're not in claims data. They're not in EHRs. And they’re not being considered in many of the AI and machine learning tools being built today.

That’s where Journal My Health comes in.

We capture real-world, patient-generated data—tracking what people are experiencing in real time. Then we make it usable: for care teams, insurers, and innovators designing the future of healthcare.

Because if AI is going to revolutionize healthcare, it needs to start with real people and real experiences.

Build the future of healthcare with the data that’s been missing—Journal My Health brings it to the table.

Data tells a story. But only if you’re listening.

Tracey Welson-Rossman, founder of Journal My Health, shares a deeply personal moment: her father—living with diabetes and high blood pressure—suddenly had dangerously low blood sugar and spiking blood pressure.

What triggered it? A stressful phone call with the cable company.

It sounds small—until you realize the impact.
That stress response wasn’t tracked. It wasn’t in his chart. It was pieced together later, anecdotally.

Now imagine if it had been captured in real time.

When we connect how we feel, pain, stress, or emotion with biometric data from wearables and patient entries, we gain a clearer picture of what’s really happening in the body. That’s the promise of Journal My Health.

We combine self-reported experiences and health data into one platform, giving providers and researchers the real-world insights they need to act faster, treat smarter, and design better systems of care.

Because mood rings won’t cut it—and neither will guesswork.

From fragmented notes to full-context insights, Journal My Health turns data into discovery.

Healthcare innovation is being driven by one major force: patient-generated health data (PGHD).
Research sponsors, CROs, and health innovators know: without direct input from patients, insights are incomplete.
At Journal My Health, we make it seamless for organizations to collect real-world, patient-reported data that’s structured, secure, and actionable.
Let’s build the future of healthcare research — together.�

There’s something doctors call “The Binder.”

Before we wrote a single line of code for Journal My Health, we spoke to doctors and patients dealing with chronic conditions. One thing came up again and again: binders—physical ones, overflowing with notes, spreadsheets, and symptom logs.

For many patients, this is the only way they can track their health. Scribbled notes. Scattered files. Dozens of entries, all living outside the system.

That’s the gap we built Journal My Health to close.

Our app replaces “The Binder” with a secure, patient-friendly platform designed for real-time symptom tracking, pattern recognition, and health data aggregation. The result? A clearer picture for both patient and provider—and a stronger foundation for care.

Because your health data shouldn't be stuck on paper.
It should be working for you.

From binder to breakthrough—Journal My Health makes it possible.

What if one missed data point could change a patient’s outcome?

Journal My Health founder Tracey Welson-Rossman saw it happen. A patient’s stress levels—never logged—spiked both their blood pressure and blood sugar. It was only noticed after the fact, and only anecdotally.

Now imagine if that insight had been tracked in real time.

Too often, critical data lives outside the clinic in lived experiences that never make it into the record. Journal My Health bridges that gap.

Our mobile app empowers patients to track symptoms, stress, and patterns in their everyday lives—while our dashboard transforms those entries into actionable insights for providers and health systems.

Because stress isn’t just invisible—it’s measurable.
And when you capture it, you can change the outcome.
