Its user-friendly interface, automated email-based enrollment, and family-friendly features help increase access to care and unmatched convenience for patients and healthcare providers.

See How It Works

To allow easy access for all users, medical records should be interoperable. It is critical that the software also provides this to medical practices that already have limited resources. When running a clinic or hospital, you need all the assistance you can get. This feature links the program to other healthcare providers and adds you to the network. You can refer patients to specialists and obtain medical records from previous doctors. When you have access to a library of information, identifying ailments and developing the optimal treatment strategy is also quite simple.

See How It Works

A medical clinic should have a well-organized timetable; else, their facility will not work correctly. The system gives you the tools to optimize your appointments and see more patients in a single day. It also can send patients reminders before their scheduled appointment to ensure that they do not miss them. You can also fill open spaces with people on the waiting list. As a result, making an appointment is considerably more straightforward, and there are no last-minute cancellations, which is a significant concern for many doctors.

Doctors can download the clinical summary with EMR, which saves time reading a full medical report. Also, they can quickly read through the diagnosis and treatment plan to get a complete understanding. The system also has the option for encounter summaries, which summarize what happened during each appointment. It helps doctors catch up because they visit so many patients. They can also share these with their colleagues to obtain a second perspective on a particular instance. Overall, the function is intended to assist already overburdened medical professionals.
