PrognoCIS Attorney Portal is a platform that empowers the Attorney to electronically refer a Patient to a clinic and have a two-way communication with the Clinic. Using this Portal, the Clinic and the Attorney can securely share information about the Patient’s visit, such as SOAP notes or Laboratory/Radiology results, manage appointments in real time or exchange documents, notes and reports.
An Attorney cannot self-register in PrognoCIS. A record must first be created by a Clinic User from the Attorney Master for an Attorney to be able to log into the PrognoCIS Attorney Portal.
Attorney Portal has the following features:
- Enable communication between Attorney and the Clinic
- Provide access to Patient’s health records
- Request and schedule appointments on behalf of Patient
- Check status of requested appointments
- Provide services for both Single Location as well as Multi Location clinics
- Support multiple browsers (Microsoft Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Google Chrome)
- Support multiple devices (iPAD and Android)
