Patient portal implementation is only a start of engaging patients electronically. A modern and innovative EHR can help you further streamline your processes while reducing workload i.e. meaningful use is just a start to automation. Start thinking about how to use the new technology.
Because the Contactless Patient Experience App is designed to be embedded within the Patagonia Health EHR, it creates a streamlined workflow. This will prevent healthcare staff from having to make duplicate entries and juggle between applications. That will reduce errors, save time and reduce the risk of clinician burnout. The Patagonia Health Patient Portal is also easy to use by patients.
With patient portal implementation, healthcare providers and public health departments can improve patient-provider communication, engage patients, and monitor and maintain care between visits to meet the overall goal of improved patient outcomes.
It is best to use a team approach in notifying patients about the portal, rather than relying solely on the clinician. Front desk staff, nurses, and clinicians can all be engaged to communicate with the patient, explaining features and benefits of portal use, and reminding the patient to use it.
Electronic health Records (EHRs) can help to put you back in control of your health; they can quickly fill in the gaps in the knowledge we have of our health and healthcare. Even though patient portals are available at no cost to patients, it is taking a long time to become main stream. Well, as the Wall Street Journal printed “Patients have a lot to gain by getting access to their health information.” In fact, all consumers can go to their doctor or hospital and demand access to their medical information via a patient portal. Patent portals provide secure access to your health information by logging into a website with your unique username and password. Consumers can simply access basic information such as allergies, medication, problems list, etc. If you choose to, you can share access to your patient portal with your family members involved in your healthcare. It is an easy and convenient way to keep track of your information.
It is possible to alleviate staffing shortages with an EHR and Patient Self Services. Interoperable healthcare IT technologies and putting more control in the hands of patients is the solution to supporting limited staff. As we stay committed to improving patient care while working towards recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, we can rely on these technologies to aid us.

Seamlessly flows into the existing EHR workflow from the check-in to check-out process, without duplication of records.
Patagonia Health understands the specific challenges of public health organizations, the dramatically changing healthcare industry and the requirements associated with the federal Electronic Health Record (EHR) Meaningful Use mandate. A Public Health EHR requires attention to details specific to local health departments that general use EHR vendors cannot address.
