HealthMark’s OTech solution has officially been added to the Epic App Orchard marketplace. With a full suite of patient intake solutions, OTech supports the entire self-check-in process at the front end of encounters to reduce no-shows, facilitate payments, accept signed consents, and allow patients to assume responsibility for their information.
“We are thrilled to now have our patient intake solutions available for physician clinics, hospitals, and health systems through the Epic App Orchard marketplace,” said Bart Howe, CEO of HealthMark Group. “This allows us to serve the needs of significantly more clients and patients as we continue building intuitive, secure, and compliant technology solutions to reimagine the business of healthcare.”
OTech aims to reduce administrative burdens while improving the efficiency and accuracy of capturing patient information in a secure and accessible format. Features for data capture include:
- Contact information/demographics
- Payments – co-pays and/or past due balances
- Driver’s license and insurance cards
- Patient photo
- Histories such as past medical, surgical, and allergies
- Consents and screening questionnaires such as PHQ9
- Meaningful Use data collection (race/language/ethnicity)
“Some of the largest hospitals and healthcare systems have adopted and utilize Epic, helping to establish its platform as the gold standard of EHRs,” said Kevin Ames, VP of Engineering for HealthMark Group. “Integrating with Epic creates an enormous opportunity for us to extend our reach to larger health systems as we use our technology to continue improving upon patient care.”
