1. Streamline Your Healthcare Journey with Patient Portal Software
60% of Americans have had a recent bad healthcare experience, a new survey published in Forbes
stated. In addition to emotional support, digital adoption is the next solution that can help enhance
their healthcare journey. Some of the major digital solutions include telehealth software, patient
portal software, monitoring software, etc.
In a recent article, we have shared how telehealth is revolutionizing healthcare. And today, in this
article, we have covered how you can streamline the healthcare journey of your patients.
using a patient portal.
So, What is an Online Patient Portal?
By definition, it is a medium to connect and communicate with your patients. From appointment
reminders, health alerts, billing updates, and follow-up instructions to access and management of
medical records, bill payments, prescription refill requests, and appointment scheduling, a feature-
rich and secure patient portal helps you take the experience of your patients to the next level,
which then results in increased trust, credibility, and satisfaction.
Some of the major benefits include:
For patients:
 Easy-to-understand processes.
 Quick appointment scheduling
 Ease of communication
 Simplified medical forms.
 Quick prescription refill requests
 Ease of reports and other document management
For providers:
 Enhanced patient engagement
 Increased trust and satisfaction
 Improved patient outcomes

2.  Saved time and cost.
 Convenient care delivery
Here are the top five features of a patient portal software that can help providers streamline the
healthcare journey for their patients.
Profile and History Update
A secure patient portal provides a complete view of all the patient health information, including:
 Health history, diagnoses, allergies, symptoms and conditions
 Test results, charts, treatment, medications, and summary
 Personalized plans, lifestyle recommendations, follow-ups, and therapy sessions
 Educational materials
One of the challenges for any patient, especially in a chronic condition, is to keep all the medical
documents and records streamlined and access them whenever required. A portal helps them
manage the documents without much hassle, from medical records and bill payments to
prescription refills to appointment scheduling, all from one place.
Online Appointment Scheduling
Patients may find it challenging to get an appointment with their care provider on a convenient
timeslot; on the other hand, providers often come across challenges such as no-shows, as patients
can often forget or miss the appointment. In addition, there are times when patients do not require
in-person visits, which causes unnecessary hassle.
The patient portal software helps solve all of these challenges, from patients being able to schedule
an appointment or even reschedule at their convenience to providers sending reminders via
messages or portal notifications and updates to avoid no-shows and unnecessary visits.
Secure Messaging
A secure patient portal software allows providers and patients to communicate in a secure
manner. From safe and secure ways for video consultation to messaging and after-visit patient
surveys, patient portal software is a medium to securely communicate while remaining HIPAA
compliant.
Online Payment
A patient portal is highly beneficial for providers and patients.
For providers, it can drastically improve cash flow since digital payments are fast, convenient,
transparent, and require less to no manual management, resulting in higher profits and reduced
management costs.
For patients, it is highly convenient, safe and easy. A patient portal enables digital payments that
essentially do the following:
 Quick and easy payment process
 Simplified insurance process
 Access to bills and benefits
Follow-up and more

3. The patient portal helps patients understand the follow-up treatments, precautions, lifestyle
changes, etc. Providers can share essential educational materials through videos and texts, which
helps patients make necessary changes in the follow-up process and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
