I started a thread back in December about Pt Portal. The reason I started it was because of the Cares Act and the fact that we have to have a pt portal. I thought it was just Medicare requiring the portal but not sure. I still have not implemented the portal for pts.
Interesting I think I have only had a couple of pt's ask about it. I also have pts tell me the hospital has a portal but " I can't figure out how to use it". The easiest and most used seems to be from the local labs. Pt's can get results and we can discuss even if the lab was ordered by someone else in town.
I do not use Medware. We use AC and Harris Caretracker is our billing software.
