Secure Web Mail a la carte
Posted: Wed Sep 30, 2015 8:41 am
Is there a plan to implement Secure Web Mail as a standalone feature without the rest of the Patient Portal features? As far as I know, the current implementation shares the following information:
1. Payments made and statements sent.
2. Secure WebMail messages between the patient and the provider. Messages can be viewed and sent. Attachments (e.g. Clinical Summaries) can be viewed.
3. A summary of patient health information in the form of a Continuity of Care Document (CCD). This can be viewed, downloaded, or transmitted to a third party.
I have a feeling a lot of offices would prefer to have the option of switching off items 1 and 3 and only use 2. It might be a requirement for EHR offices to have all three turned on but not so for others.
If you support this option, support feature request number 4071.
