September 03 2020 - 9:15AM
MTBC, Inc. (Nasdaq: MTBC) (Nasdaq: MTBCP), a leading provider
of cloud-based healthcare IT solutions and services, including
telehealth, announced today it is offering Health Records on iPhone
through its talkEHR platform. Health Records brings together
hospitals, clinics, and the existing Apple Health app to make it
easy for patients to see their available medical data, from
multiple providers, whenever they choose. The Health Records
feature is part of the Health app, which also shows activity, heart
rate, nutrition, and other health data consolidated from iPhone,
Apple Watch and HealthKit-enabled third-party apps. Health Records
is available for iPhone users running iOS 11.3 or higher.
talkEHR is a cloud-based electronic health
record, medical billing, and telehealth software platform that
streamlines clinical and financial workflows for medical practices.
Patients can stay connected to their healthcare provider through
talkEHR’s Personal Health Record app and, now with the power of
Health Records for iPhone, can aggregate their health records on
their iPhone for a more holistic view of their health. MTBC is
dedicated to helping providers enhance the patient experience, and
supporting Health Records on iPhone gives providers the ability to
give their patients even greater access to their data.
Traditionally, patients’ medical records are
held in multiple locations, requiring patients to log into each
care provider’s website and piece together the information
manually. Health Records creates a direct connection between
medical institutions and patient’s iPhone, allowing them to see a
central view of their allergies, conditions, immunizations, lab
results, medications, procedures, and vitals. It also notifies
patients when their data is updated.
Health Records on iPhone was designed to protect
patients’ privacy through utilizing a direct, encrypted connection
between the user’s iPhone and the healthcare organization.
Downloaded health records data is stored on-device and encrypted
with the user’s iPhone passcode, Touch ID, or Face ID. Apple worked
with the healthcare community to take a consumer-friendly approach,
creating Health Records based on FHIR (Fast Healthcare
Interoperability Resources), a standard for transferring electronic
medical records.
“We are thrilled to offer Health Records on
iPhone to enhance data sharing across the industry,” said Hadi
Chaudhry, President and Director for MTBC. “True industry-wide
interoperability, backed by FHIR standards, is the future of better
data access and shared insights across the healthcare space. MTBC
intends to continue its work with industry leaders to make health
data easily accessible to providers and patients alike.”
Patients can access Health Records from within
the Health app and can download their health records by selecting
MTBC and authenticating with their patient portal username and
password.
