Clinic & Practice
Patient portals patients actually use
Patient portals reduce phone calls, improve engagement, and give patients access to their health information. But most portals fail because they're hard to use and don't connect to clinical workflows.
Common challenges
What teams struggle with
Low patient adoption
Portals that require account creation, app downloads, and complex navigation get ignored.
Stale information
Results and documents not updated in real time from clinical systems.
Secure messaging gaps
Messages that don't reach the right clinician or get lost in generic inboxes.
myHealth Record duplication
Portals that duplicate rather than complement myHealth Record confuse patients.

Should we build a portal or use myHealth Record?
Both serve different purposes. myHealth Record is the national record; your portal provides practice-specific services like booking and messaging. We help you design the right split.
