Multi-provider clinics receiving inbound messages and content from patients can benefit from being able to identify and route the submission to the relevant provider. This article describes the steps for adding the provider's name to the website eForm and routing the website form submission to a specific provider for review.
1. Identifying the Patient's Primary Provider
- For Med Access users, select the eForm in your library called "Inbound Message". This is the form patients will see after authenticating their identity in the patient authenticated website form. You can add a multiple choice question with names of the clinic's providers as response options (e.g. 'What is your doctor's name?' with Dr. Smith, Dr. Jones, Dr. Black as individual responses). You can make it a mandatory question so that the administrative staff reviewing the inbound patient attachments will have an easier way of identifying the provider.
- For Oscar users, select the eForm in your library called "Inbound Message". This is the form patients will see after authenticating their identity in the patient authenticated website form. You can add a multiple choice question with names of the clinic's providers as response options (e.g. 'What is your doctor's name?' with Dr. Smith, Dr. Jones, Dr. Black as individual responses). You can make it a mandatory question so that the administrative staff reviewing the inbound patient attachments will have an easier way of identifying the provider.
- For Accuro users, select the eForm in your library called "Inbound Message". This is the form patients will see after authenticating their identity in the patient authenticated website form. You can add a multiple choice question with names of the clinic's providers as response options (e.g. 'What is your doctor's name?' with Dr. Smith, Dr. Jones, Dr. Black as individual responses). You can make it a mandatory question so that the administrative staff reviewing the inbound patient attachments will have an easier way of identifying the provider.
- If you use non-integrated EMR, select the eForm in your library called "Inbound Message". This is the form patients will see after authenticating their identity in the patient authenticated website form. You can add a multiple choice question with names of the clinic's providers as response options (e.g. 'What is your doctor's name?' with Dr. Smith, Dr. Jones, Dr. Black as individual responses). You can make it a mandatory question so that the administrative staff reviewing the inbound patient attachments will have an easier way of identifying the provider.
2. Routing To A Specific Provider
-
- Administrative staff can review website form submissions in the Ocean portal and route submissions to specific providers. These providers must be an Ocean user on the Ocean site to review these website form submissions. The website form submission will appear in the "For Me" folder of the intended Ocean user.
- Log in to the Ocean Portal. Click the Menu button and select "Website Forms". Check for new submissions in the "New" inbox.
3. Reviewing website form submissions (as a provider)
-
- The provider will receive an email notification that the website form submission has been assigned to them.
