PREMIER HEALTH ANNOUNCES 90,000 PATIENTS NOW REGISTERED ON ITS MYHEALTHACCESS TELEMEDICINE PATIENT PORTAL
Premier Health Group Inc. has a total of 90,000 patients on-boarded to its MyHealthAccess telemedicine patient portal.
MyHealthAccess will enable the Company's Juno Electronic Medical Records (EMR) patient database to directly interact with their healthcare providers and primary care clinics via a user-friendly smart device application. Through the portal, patients are able to book appointments in real-time 24/7, chat with clinical staff and see their doctor from the comfort of their home or office via telemedicine.
MyHealthAccess will continue to evolve into a comprehensive patient portal that provides users a singular access point for all interactions with their healthcare providers and support staff. Additional features include the deployment of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to triage patient care. Using the application, the patient will answer a series of questions ahead of their appointment, which will be relayed to the physician along with a differential on possible diagnoses. This information will automatically be prepopulated to the physicians charting system and will provide key patient information prior to the scheduled virtual visit, not only saving the doctor valuable time but leading to a much more effective patient-doctor interaction.
"We are thrilled to announce 90,000 users and counting," said Dr. Essam Hamza, CEO of Premier Health. "The positive reception we have received from our physicians and patients alike has been overwhelming. With our latest acquisition of Livecare, we look forward to expanding our offering to MyHealthAccess users to include access to kindredPHR {&#A A ; –} a personalized health record used for storing, managing, and sharing your health information. The current state of healthcare is unsustainable and Premier Health is at the forefront of disrupting the status quo with our technology. With further integrations, our patients will have increased access to their charts, lab results, the ability to securely chat with clinical staff, reorder prescriptions and share remote health monitoring data with their doctor {&#A A ; –} all at their fingertips."
