Expanded adoption of video chats has paved the way for Telemedicine. Telemedicine is now the way of delivering healthcare. For most of us, healthcare through Telehealth or Telemedicine can be new and scary. Mostly because we can be technologically inept or are unable to answer patient\u2019s questions regarding this remote diagnosis and treatment procedure and in some cases thinking about the costs it entails.<\/p>\n
The essential tools or \u201cequipment\u201d necessary for a successful Telehealth experience include carts, configured peripherals, and a robust\u00a0Telemedicine Electronic Medical Records (EMR) Software<\/a>. All the frequently asked questions when it comes to telemedicine are (i.e. internet connectivity, data security or privacy policy,\u00a0health assessment without interaction<\/a>\u00a0and payments) can be easily answered through the aforementioned tools.<\/p>\n To have a good understanding of how the software works, it is advisable to learn about the different features and functionalities of the software. Before choosing a Telemedicine EMR Software, we should check if the software has the following key features:<\/p>\n On-Call Consultations<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u2013 <\/strong>Telemedicine EMR Software should allow robust Video chat features for problems or recovery process, on a live call, in-case they are bedridden or unable to show up.<\/p>\n Remote Assessments<\/span> \u2013<\/strong> Telemedicine EMR Software should be able to send images of a wound, or an affected body part for evaluation and assessment by a physician in a different area through HIPAA compliant<\/em>\u00a0channels. Expert opinions could be used for a particular case.<\/p>\n Real-Time Monitoring<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u2013 <\/strong>Telemedicine EMR Software should support a mobile medical device with internet access that can be used to automatically send vital medical data of patients to their healthcare provider in real-time so that quick action can be taken in case of an emergency.<\/p>\n Secure Data Sharing<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u2013 <\/strong>Telemedicine EMR Software should share sensitive data through strict encryption. This ensures the safety of data even in case of a security breach.<\/p>\n Video-Calls<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u2013 <\/strong>Telemedicine EMR Software should allow High-quality face-to-face audio and video transmission facility, group calls and screen-sharing features to enable multiway conversations. Third-parties such as caregivers or translators<\/em>\u00a0can also join these video-calls.<\/p>\n Online Queuing System<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u2013 <\/strong>Telemedicine EMR Software should offer Virtual waiting rooms to keep the patients engaged while waiting for an appointment. Doctors or their staff can share images or educational articles or documents for patients to view while they wait for their turn.<\/p>\n e-Prescribing (e-Rx)<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0\u2013 <\/strong>Telemedicine EMR Software should create e-Prescriptions <\/a>automatically and send it to the patient’s preferred pharmacies<\/p>\n Automatic Billing<\/strong><\/span> \u2013 <\/strong>Telemedicine EMR Software should processes payments and update the medical billing<\/a>\u00a0status automatically while confirming and verifying everything with the insurance provider of the patient.<\/p>\n Research by\u00a0EMRSystems<\/a>\u00a0found the following Electronic Health Records software companies to be the leading vendors to have developed and introduced Telemedicine functionality as part of their core EMR software, Practice Management, and\u00a0Medical Billing Services<\/a>\u00a0portfolio:<\/p>\n Make sure the software you\u2019re going to purchase is certified. For Telemedicine Software, the certification you should be looking out for is by the ONC-Authorized Testing and Certification Body (\u201cONC-ATCB\u201d). They are responsible for making sure your vendor meets Meaningful Use objectives and is HIPAA compliant. It is highly imperative that the software you choose is compatible with that of the rest of the practice and with the existing EMR Software if you are opting for a stand-alone option. Please do consult your provider to ensure that the software you are choosing only provides those features and not more than what you need.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Expanded adoption of video chats has paved the way for Telemedicine.
