The electronic claims management company, Transmedic, has recently partnered with PogoMD® to utilize their secure patient portal. PogoMD® is the next generation in secure patient-physician communication. PogoMD® brings ONC Certified features to Transmedic that will allow their users to share patient records and communications securely and seamlessly across the internet.
Included in the PogoMD® secure patient portal is secure messaging, appointment scheduling, patient forms and check-in, reminders and alerts, capability to share patient records, statements, payment collection, and pediatric growth charts where patients can track their own children’s growth against the national CDC growth charts. PogoMD® also offers a robust e-referral module allowing physicians to share select or entire clinical records with other providers, track referrals, and rank referrals based upon priority.
With PogoMD®, Transmedic users can now offer their patients, referring physicians, hospitals and specialists the same view of critical clinical information. Because PogoMD® is EHR agnostic, it provides a unified, standardized presentation format across an entire care continuum, a unique capability in the healthcare industry.
“We welcome Transmedic to our growing list of EHR vendors that recognize the value and advantages an EMR independent clinical portal offers to their users and to their community,” states Jeff Mongelli, CEO of Acentec, Inc., the exclusive distributor for PogoMD®.
Transmedic works with medical offices, dental offices, and chiropractors with their MedCom EHR and billing software. Transmedic also provides clearinghouse services, which properly file payment claims from existing software with no minimum, monthly, or annual fees. There are also no contracts involved and clients receive 200 free claims at no cost.
PogoMD® and Transmedic are both simple to use and easy to get started with. PogoMD® offers a cloud-based service for easy sharing capability while keeping information private and secure using state of the art security protocols and storage at their Department of Defense certified data centers. PogoMD® is Meaningful Use Certified, which means that they are certified as a modular Electronic Medical Records service.
