The application allows patients to easily communicate with their care team through direct messages, ensuring quick and secure communication. Patients can also access their test results, including labs and other tests, as soon as they become available. This allows for timely and efficient management of their health.
Patients can also self-schedule appointments with their care team and view upcoming visits beyond regular office hours. This feature allows for greater flexibility and convenience in managing appointments. Additionally, patients can save time by checking in for appointments and completing necessary documentation before their visit.
The app also offers the option for virtual visits, allowing patients to initiate and attend telehealth appointments with members of their care team. This is especially useful for patients who may have difficulty physically attending appointments.
Patients can also view their medications, set reminders, and request refills without having to call their doctor. This streamlines the process and makes it easier for patients to manage their medications. The app also allows patients to view their medical history, including allergies, immunizations, vitals, and visit summaries, providing a comprehensive overview of their health.
The app also offers tools for monitoring vitals and meeting health goals, such as weight management, activity, fitness, and sleep tracking. Patients can track their readings and watch for trend changes to share with their doctor. Additionally, the app allows for the management and viewing of multiple family members' health records under one account, making it easier for families to stay on top of their health.
It is important to note that patients must have an existing healow Patient Portal account with their doctor's office in order to use the app. Once downloaded and launched, patients can log in using their existing username and password. The app also offers the option to create a pin and enable Face ID or Touch ID for easier access. This eliminates the need for patients to enter their login information every time they use the app.
