One of the most common questions we hear from clinic managers is, \u201cWhat\u2019s the best way to use Secure-Mail with patients?\u201d<\/p>

The answer is, \u201cThere is no single best way to engage patients using Secure-Mail.\u201d<\/p>

First, a bit about why you should use Secure-Mail with your patients.\u00a0<\/p>

Privacy compliance is one of the top features of Secure-Mail for clinic managers.<\/strong>\u00a0You can replace all of your traditional emails exchanged with patients that endanger privacy. Your risk of privacy breach will go way down.<\/p>

Thanks to the compliance of Secure-Mail, you can include any required information in your messages to patients. No more staff time spent waiting for phone calls to go to voicemail just so they can leave a cryptic message that might not be checked for days.<\/p>

Probably the most important reason for using Secure-Mail with patients is that you can use it to improve patient outcomes.<\/b><\/p>

Clinics that use Secure-Mail to prepare patients in advance state that appointments are more effective and patients agree. Research shows that patients forget 30-80% of what was discussed in an appointment shortly after they leave. Follow up summaries and resources are used to improve treatment adherence and support self-management.<\/p>

Healthcare needs\u00a0the full circle of care to work together.<\/strong><\/p>

The biggest way Secure-Mail supports patient outcomes is by uniting the care team around the patient and their health information.<\/strong>\u00a0That’s why users belong to the\u00a0Connected Healthcare Community. Your clinic and your patients can use Secure-Mail to interact with the rest of their care team. There is no room for misexplained details when patients are able to simply forward your message rather than try to explain what they interpreted.<\/p>
