Connect with your patients online through a secure, EMR-integrated speech therapy patient portal.
With the healthcare industry’s push toward patient-centered care and the EHR Incentive Program encouraging patient engagement, the need for online speech therapy patient portal software is growing. Furthermore, patients are increasingly turning to the Internet for medical resources, making a strong case for implementing a specialty specific online portal.
The IMS’ online speech therapy patient portal is an integrated solution that brings healthcare professionals and patients together. Our online portal allows patients to access personal health records from anywhere, at any time, through an Internet-connected device. Through the speech therapy portal, patients can update their personal information and complete health forms before visiting their doctor. This not only helps to reduce waiting times for patients, but it allows staff to spend less time on administrative tasks.

Patient Intake Forms: Avoid long waits at check-in while patients fill out intake and registration forms and front desk staff enter the information into the EMR. With our online healthcare speech therapy portal, patients can fill out the paperwork before coming to the office. This not only lightens staff workload but reduces data entry errors too.
Appointment Requests: Patients appreciate self-service options such as booking appointments online, that don’t require them to take the time to make a phone call. Through our online speech therapy portal, patients are able to request appointments quickly, and at their own convenience. This saves time for the patient and for your employees as well.
Medication Refill Requests: Instead of patients having to call your office for prescription refills and employees then having to call the refill into the patient’s pharmacy, requests for medication refills can be submitted through your practice’s online speech therapy portal. Submitting refill requests this way simplifies the process and is more convenient for patients and staff.
Referral Requests: In order for insurance companies to cover specialist services, it is often necessary for patients to obtain a referral from their primary care doctor. Our online healthcare speech therapy patient portal has an inbuilt referral request feature that allows patients to bypass a visit or phone call to the doctor’s office by requesting referral authorizations online. If the physician feels a visit is required, the patient can be contacted through the system for an appointment. Otherwise, the doctor can authorize the referral through the speech therapy patient portal or EMR and send it to the patient electronically.
