RevolutionEHR, a cloud-based EHR and practice management platform for optometry, announced early access to its re-designed patient portal.  According to a company press release, this upgrade allows patients to schedule appointments, send and receive secure messages, pay bills online, and access clinical documents, including Consolidated Clinical Document Architecture records, through a single, secure destination.

Specifically, the upgrade includes a streamlined login using a 1-time passcode delivered via email that eliminates usernames and passwords; enhanced secure messaging, allowing patients to communicate with additional staff members for faster, more flexible support; and recall visibility, giving patients clear access to upcoming recalls directly within the portal. In addition, the upgrade includes ‍practice branding controls, including customizable colors and logo uploads for a cohesive, professional patient experience.

By unifying scheduling, billing, messaging, and record access into a single intuitive experience, the redesigned patient portal reduces interruptions and manual follow-ups. Secure, ONC-aligned functionality also supports compliance without adding complexity, the press release stated. OM
