With 19 years in the healthcare industry, ScienceSoft plans and implements patient portals for efficient interaction with patients.
Patient Portals: the Essence
Healthcare organizations use portals to provide patients with convenient and secure 24/7 access to their personal health information (PHI), medical advice, and assistance. A patient-facing self-service portal optimizes communication with a healthcare provider and increases patient engagement in the treatment process.
Key functionality: doctor visit arrangement, disease-specific modules, telehealth, payments, and seamless integration with the IT environment.
Costs: from $100,000 to $250,000. Use our free calculator to get a tailored ballpark estimate for your project.
