Google is retiring Google Health per the announcement below.
A few thoughts
*Google Health has the best user interface, feature set, and ease of use of all the stand alone personal health records
*Google Health is truly innovative and broke new ground when it created interfaces to hospitals, labs, and pharmacies in 2008. I was there at the beginning and can definitively state that it was Google's reputation and vision that broke down the political barriers keeping data from patients.
*Google will be using the Direct standards to enable patients to transmit their Google Health data to Microsoft Healthvault and other PHRs
Thank you to Google and the Google Health team. You really moved the industry.

Going forward, we recommend that you notify your team and discontinue any current development around your Google Health integration. Also, you’ll need to remove the integration functionality as well as Google Health related text and logos from your website as of January 1, 2012. Please consider this as our notice to terminate our agreement with you on the Google Health API Terms and Conditions, found at https://services.google.com/fb/forms/googhealthdevelopers.
