LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire -05/30/12)- MMRGlobal, Inc. (MMRF) ("MMR") today announced that Pets Best Insurance (www.petsbest.com), a nationwide organization dedicated to insuring the health of America's millions of dogs and cats, is now offering MMR's flagship MyMedicalRecords Personal Health Record (PHR) as part of its BestWellness Program. MyMedicalRecords is the only Personal Health Record that covers all members of a family including pets at no additional cost. The offer appears in more than 600,000 e-mails to vets and consumers starting this week, and is featured on the Pets Best website http://www.petsbest.com/community/special-offers. Pet owners can also access the offer at https://www.mymedicalrecords.com/petsbest.

Considering that more than 60% of Americans own a dog and 34% of American households have a cat, MMR believes this offer and others like it will ultimately be seen by millions of pet owners. The Company has already offered its Personal Health Record products through Dancing Paws (www.dancingpaws.com), a company partially owned by MMRGlobal's CEO Bob Lorsch.

MyMedicalRecords is MMRGlobal's premier consumer-controlled Personal Health Record product designed to allow families to maintain all their medical records for up to 10 family members, including their pets, in one secure online location and access them anytime from anywhere in the world over an Internet-connected device. MyMedicalRecords is the only PHR that can store actual copies of patient files in their original format from any healthcare professional and connect patients to their providers via a patented telecommunications platform which seamlessly integrates Internet, fax and voice. MyMedicalRecords also comes with a MyEsafeDepositBox in which important documents such as copies of birth certificates, advance directives, mortgage documents, marriage license, passport information, precious family photos and more can be stored at no extra charge.

Users who sign up for a MyMedicalRecords account can also receive a personalized Emergency Wallet Card featuring a picture of themselves with their pet that connects doctors and emergency personnel to potentially life-saving information accessed through MyMedicalRecords' special Emergency Login portal.
