MEDICAL PASSPORT Medical Passport, our online pre-admission system, allows patients and staff to capture medical history and demographic information via a secure cloud-based account rather than a phone interview or clip board, promoting more timely, complete and accurate information and saving hours of nursing time that can be re-directed at other clinical activities. |
ENGAGE Engage is our patient engagement and communication solution that allows you to automatically send physician/procedure-specific reminders, education and communications to patients via text and/or email, and to interact more easily with your staff, physicians and vendors. |
BIG BOARD Big Board is our real-time patient tracking system that allows you to display your patient schedule throughout the facility and update patient status in real time, improving visibility, efficiency and the patient/family experience. Highly configurable to your needs, Big Board is a technology-driven replacement for dry erase white boards and interruptions at the front desk. |
OFFICE Completely re-designed in 2018, Passport Booking enables physician offices to submit electronic booking requests to your facility 24/7 with online templates that promote more complete, legible and accurate information, saving time and frustration for schedulers on both sides. Passport Documents enables digital transfer of H&Ps, surgical consents and other documents from physician offices to your center, putting an end to hard-to-read faxes and lost paperwork. |
ARCHIVE Passport Archive is your one solution for secure digital document management, replacing onsite or offsite chart storage with a digital document management solution, allowing you to scan, index, store and retrieve all elements of a patient chart with a few clicks. |
ENGAGE VIDEO Engage Video is an additional Engage feature that allows you to send videos to patients to prepare, remind and educate them throughout their entire journey. Videos can be customized by facility, procedure, physician, and even medical history. |
PAYMENTS Payments alerts patients of their financial obligations before day of surgery. Through text and email communication, Payments uses secure technology to ultimately get you paid faster. |
VENDOR MANAGEMENT Powered by Torq, our HIPAA-compliant vendor management system enables automated, secure information sharing with vendors in real-time. Vendors can confirm once they have received case updates, remaining in sync with facility needs and guaranteeing staff has the proper equipment and coverage for every surgery, every time. |

a. We will comply with all relevant privacy and security requirements applicable to Business Associates (as defined in HIPAA), including the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) and the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act (“HITECH”). In addition, we will comply with the Business Associate Agreement (the “BAA”), which is incorporated by reference as part of this Agreement.
