Providing Individuals They Support with 24/7 Online Access to Health Information
Vermont Business Magazine Health Care and Rehabilitation Services (HCRS), southeastern Vermont’s non-profit community mental-health agency, announced today that they have implemented a new patient portal. The online portal provides the individuals they support with access to enter and obtain their own health information, communicate with their HCRS provider, schedule appointments, and ultimately better manage their health.
The online patient portal system, which is HIPAA compliant, can be accessed 24/7 through a secure website.
The portal allows the agency to improve patient access to their own health information. According to George Karabakakis, Ph.D., HCRS CEO, “We’re pleased to be able to offer this important online access to health information for those we support with mental health, substance use, and developmental disability services. Rather than having to wait for regular business hours, individuals and authorized family members will be able to log onto the patient portal at any time day or night.”
