Patient Portal

What is a Patient Portal?

A Patient Portal is a new Web-based communicate tool that is easy and safe to use. Practices can further automate their practice by allowing patients to see their own private set of documents including labs and diagnostics, as well as send automatic health maintenance reminders and procedure due dates. Depending on the product you decide on, a Patient Portal can either serve as a communication tool and information portal or a fully EMR integrated automated system for a medical practice. Regardless of which solution you choose a Patient Portal should provide the fallowing features:

  • Send/receive messages to/from doctor’s office (i.e.: Send faxed Medication request to Pharmacy)

  • Request new appointments, prescription refills, and lab reports.

  • Examine current and past medical statements.

  • Enter or modify personal information and other demographic information .

  • Receive emails for reminders, upcoming appointments and statements.
