Patient Management Portal (PMP)

Patient Management Portal (PMP)

The PMP is the interface used by physicians and staff that provides direct access to the patient data and many critical functions including:

  • Appointment scheduling
  • Shopping cart purchases
  • In-office checkout and payment for services rendered
  • Patient communications (Secure Communications and email)
  • Patient Management Dashboard.

The PMP is the “system of record” for all of the demographic data including name, addresses, phone numbers, date of birth. For practices that offer fixed duration programs for service delivery, the PMP tracks the start and expiration dates for these programs and provides complete renewal management capability. The dashboard provides near real time visibility into the intake process, appointment activities and patient acquisition statistics. It is a powerful tool to get a quick handle on the business of the practice and the inherent benchmarks can be easily updated for each practice and can be changed easily as the business grows. The exhibit below provides a depiction of the dashboard in action.

Watch a 2 minute short video here:

Looking at the intake status section, green checkmarks indicate forms that have been received or actions that are complete. Green dots signal activities not complete, but still within the allotted time established by the practice. Yellow dots signal caution as the established time has passed and red indicates a need for action as an additional amount of time has passed (set by the practice) and the activity is still not complete. In the remaining two sections, the fuel gages indicate the level of appointments, new patients, new program patients and other metrics that are important to the practice. The needle shows the current level of activity against the benchmarks for each color set by the practice. From the dashboard, practice managers can determine at a glance the state of the business of the practice. Intake Coordinators can determine the exact status of all of the patients that are in the intake process and practice marketing professionals can determine the effectiveness of marketing campaigns.

Lead Management System

Lead Management System — NO Separate CRM Needed

Most practices have a website that includes a “contact us” page that allows prospective patients to submit inquiries to the practice. The problem is that these inquiries are generally delivered to the practice by email. As the number of inquiries increases, managing these inquiries is difficult in an email environment. That is where the eMedicalFusion Inquiry Management system (eIMS) steps in to help practices manage these inquiries more effective thereby converting more prospective patients to patients than possible with the email-based system. With the eIMS, inquiries submitted through the web contact us page as well as inquiries that originate from calls to the office can all be managed with the eIMS. From the eIMS, practices can make notes for other staff persons to see or just a tickler note to self for later followup, send managed emails to the patient and send the links with instructions for the online intake process. As leads are converted or lost, they are removed from the active list so that the staff responsible for managing the inquiries can focus on the relevant/active leads. With the eIMS, practices use eMedicalFusion to manage the entire lifecycle of interactions from prospective patient to patients and beyond.

ePatientPortal


Now available as part of the eMedicalFusion Software Suite or as a Stand Alone Portal ePatient Portal, available both as part of the eMedicalFusion Practice Management Suite and as a Standalone Product, provides real benefits for patients and practices by leveraging an existing trend – Self Service. With ePatient Portal, your patients will finally feel like medicine has joined the 21st century. Patients will appreciate the 24×7 self-service convenience as it saves them time and enables them to perform a number of tasks without picking up the phone or sending an email. And practices can use the ePatientPortal to help achieve HIPAA compliance. Click here to understand how you can use our standalone patient portal to help achieve HIPAA Compliance The ePatientPortal is delivered via a secure web site (https://) that allows patients to accomplish the following:

  • Create and update their demographic profile
  • Complete a configurable multi step online intake process including filling a health history form and HIPAA Acknowledgement
  • Schedule appointments
  • Bidirectional Secure Communications with the physicians and staff
  • Make payments for services
  • Access the shopping cart

Click here to see the ePatientPortal Secure Online Intake in action in this 2 minute video:

The Patient Experience with the eMedicalFusion ePatient Portal (Cash Practice) Future patients self-register to start the intake process. The patient inputs all of the key demographic information, selects a username and password and downloads, then completes the remaining steps of the online intake process including making payment (if required by the practice) and scheduling the initial appointment. As the patient proceeds through the online intake, the practice intake coordinator watches the dashboard as each form is submitted. After all forms are submitted to the office, the practices that require pre-visit lab work develops the lab requisition and sends the requisition to the patient using eMedicalFusion’s secure messaging capability. The patient receives an email notice that new secure messages are ready to be viewed and logs into the portal to retrieve the message and the lab requisition. The patient heads to the lab as instructed by the doctor.

At the initial appointment, the patient agrees to commence with one of the concierge-type programs that the practice offers and the staff inputs the program into the eMedicalFusion payment application that allows the patient to pay for the program in monthly or quarterly installments, which are completely automated and require no further action from the staff. Then the doctor has recommend several nutraceuticals and these are entered into the shopping cart along with a recurring order so that the products will be shipped to the patient automatically in the chosen frequencies.

At the end of the month, the patient enters the ePatientPortal to review their statement of charges and payments and prints this statement for submission to their flexible spending reimbursement account. In some cases, this statement may need to be augmented by a medically coded invoice.

Achieve HIPAA Compliance with the eMedicalFusion ePatient Portal (All Practices) Recently, the federal government has discovered that HIPAA compliance audits are profitable so they have doubled their staff assigned to HIPAA compliance audits. The fines for non-compliance are significant with large organizations being fined hundreds of thousands of dollars for non-compliance issues and small practices being fined tens of thousands of dollars. Many of these violations can be avoided with a patient portal combined with solid office procedures. Keep reading to understand a few of the HIPAA Compliance issues and how the ePatientPortal resolves these issues:

  • Communicating with patients involving Protected Health Information (PHI). Currently many practices use email as a mode of communication with patients. Based on the HIPAA regulations and HI-TECH amendment to the act, email is not a secure form of communication. Importantly patients may NOT waive HIPAA so even if you have them sign a document agreeing to communicate by email, you are still in violation
  • Solution: Bidirectional Secure Communications with the ePatientPortal. The server-based secure communication is similar to the methods employed by banks and other security consciouus organizations whereby you may receive an email communication directing you to the portal to get the message content.
Lab Integration

Robust Bi-directional Lab Integration

  • Certified by Quest and Labcorp for bi-directional integration. Other labs are being constantly added!
  • Create lab orders easily and efficiently for in-office draw or send directly to Quest/Labcorp Service Centers.
  • Current master test code files ensure you are ordering the intended tests from the database published by the labs.
  • Results reporting uses color coded lines to flag abnormal values.
  • Historical reports feature lets you easily compare results over time.
  • Exclusive feature for Integrative Practitioners: Enter practice -specific reference ranges and view results and abnormal flags against your own reference ranges. (Eliminates having to explain to patients why they are in the “reference” range but not in the optimal range.)

Payment Application

Payment Application

For cash and concierge practices, the payment application is one of the most important components of a fully integrated system since this application alone is responsible for charging the patients form of payment and recording all transactions for accounting and reconciliation purposes. As eMedicalFusion systems are designed specifically for cash, concierge and hybrid practices, the eMedicalFusion “smart” Payment Application has very specific functionality for cash practices including:

  • Charging for an unlimited number of product and service items
  • Sales tax charging and collection and posting to QB for payment to tax authorities
  • Automatic processing of payment plans
  • Ability to have different services and rates for multiple practice locations
  • Ability to process “offline” charges through the system to handle alternate payment methods like Care Credit or swipe terminal payments
  • Ability to swipe cards using a standard USB magnetic card reader that can attach to any PC
  • Scheduling of recurring automatic charges
  • Email receipts and point-of-sale printable receipts
  • Maintaining start and expiration dates for fixed duration “programs”
  • Securely storing credit card data for later use using Authorize.net’s Customer Information Manager – an approach that allows practices to have the convenience of stored cards yet operating with PCI compliance
  • Linkages with CPT codes for patient superbill generation (not for 3rd party billing)
  • Fully integrated with the patient data avoiding redundant data entry of using a disconnected system

The functionality highlighted above is enabled by one of the leading internet gateway providers, Authorize.net. It will truly enable your cash practice to do business using practice specific payment programs for each service that you sell. If facilitates PCI compliance as we do NOT store credit card numbers on our systems thereby avoiding the PCI compliance issues associated with this practice. This allows you to certify your PCI compliance with a simple self-assessment when required by your merchant bank.

eVendorPortal

eVendorPortal

The eVendorPortal combined with a very robust shopping cart delivers an “Amazon.com-like” shopping experience for patients and a profit center for practices. And this profit center works 24×7 even when the doctor is not in the office. The practice chooses which vitamins, supplements and products to offer from our list of preferred vendors or ones of your choosing. Then patients can log into the ePatientPortal and purchase these products using a familiar shopping cart interface all without using staff to take the orders and process credit cards.

The integrated eVendor Portal includes an order management system that supports multiple dropshippers with real-time integration with the shopping cart. Support for multiple dropshippers means that the practice can use as many vendors as they choose as opposed to the vendor-provided shopping carts that generally support selling only a single product line. The order management component provides a secure web-based interface for vendors to receive orders, update orders status and enter shipping/tracking information. As this occurs, the shopping cart is updated in real time and patients receive real time status and shipping confirmation emails with tracking numbers. If you have ordered from Amazon.com, you understand the power of this efficiency and communications.
