People with chronic illness or disability share similar information needs that are not routinely handled by a system designed for traditional health services. Recent historical initiatives to provide alternate information systems for sharing information or coordinating services have been highly centralized, were expensive to set up and were not sustainable. We propose a novel application of peer-to-peer networking to provide an infrastructure for information exchange and service coordination. The peer-to-peer model empowers the user (citizen with disabilities) with control over the type and extent of information about themselves that is communicated and to whom. Further, the peer-to-peer model leads to a decentralized resource that grows incrementally, supported by the users, and is potentially more sustainable.
