engage patients, and do so in their preferred channel of communication.

still finding its way in the digital landscape. This is why iMedHealth is designed to be a
digital distribution platform that serves as a complement to patient
portals and patient information access.

How iMedHealth Drives Digital Adoption
When you use iMedHealth, you're also promoting the adoption of digital
services to your patients. Whether you are trying to increase patient portal
adoption or are using other communication methods to digitally engage with
patients, iMedHealth supports both efforts.
Raising Digital Engagement with Patients
Digital Intake and Consent Forms
Documentation can be filled out ahead of appointments and procedures, giving patients the time they need to fully review and understand the information.
Patient-Specific Multimedia
Materials including videos, text messaging and other digital multimedia as well as mail, documents and handouts can be customized for each patient.
Digital Document Library
Access to thousands of digital patient education documents including anatomical images, pre-procedure and discharge instructions, and drug monographs.
Supporting Patient Portals
If your organization is using a patient portal, iMedHealth can help you get more patients to
sign up. Research shows that patients prefer online and mobile solutions when it comes to
interacting with their healthcare providers.
Increase Patient Portal Access
iMedHealth solutions can be used as gateways to your patient portal, using links to promote your portal and giving patients who have not yet opted in opportunities to sign up.
Structure Information
While patient portals house patient health records, there are still some forms that don’t quite fit in that structure. iMedHealth can serve as a digital platform for these forms.
Enhanced Communication
Patient portals help patients and physicians interact without extra office visits. iMedHealth furthers this flexibility with digital documentation that can be reviewed at home.
Healthcare Forms Automation
iMedHealth features a web-based application called iMedAutomate.
iMedAutomate streamlines the creation and management of clinical,
administrative and departmental documentation.

- Define form and content design as well as change and approval workflows
- Speed up document and content turnaround through multiple process owners

- Significantly reduces costs on preprinted forms and patient ID labels
