Determining what patient portal best fits your health center and its needs is a delicate balancing act. It is important to carefully review all options. What is a patient portal? According to the Official Website of The Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology (ONC), a patient portal is a secure online website that gives patients convenient, 24-hour access to personal health information and medical records—called an Electronic Health Record or EHR—from anywhere with an Internet connection. Patient portals are designed for patients to save time and streamline communication with the care team while having better control over their health and care.
