Patient Portal has a number of useful features:
SHARED FILES

The shared files are available directly in the patient record for Orion Health EHR users.
PATIENT LIBRARY
Patient Portal enables organisations to set up libraries of common documents, files and forms, specific to each patient condition. Patients can access trusted, reliable information quickly and easily without being overwhelmed by irrelevant information.
Organisations reduce printing costs, improve form submission times and ensure information is not lost.
MEDICAL RECORDS
Patient Portal integrates seamlessly with Orion Health EHR and gives patients access to their medical record in an easy to read format. Information includes:
- Encounters
- Medications
- Laboratory and radiology results
- Allergies and adverse reactions
- Active problems
- History of past illnesses
All of which can be made available at the discretion of the patient’s care team.
Patient Portal also enables patients to:
- View appointments and receive confirmation and reminder emails thereby helping reduce missed appointments
- Have secure online conversations with their providers. The messages are confidential but become part of the patient record
- Access their information in English, French or Spanish. Organisations can add other language translations as required
