How to use the Telehealth module ?

The telehealth module allows an online consultation between the patient and the therapist.






The beginning

To be able to allow an online consultation with your patient, several things will have to be done beforehand:

  1. Connect to the Medexa platform
  2. Go to Schedule > Employees

  1. Click on the appointment of the patient in question
  2. A new window will open offering several options

  1. To send the consultation link to the patient, click on Send telehealth link to the patient
    1. This will send an email to the patient (here John DOE) with a link in the text content that will allow access to the consultation. Warning, there is a time limit to access this link.


  1. Once the email has been sent, you will see a confirmation message


Note:

Now that the email is sent, we will see the use of the telehealth module, seen from the patient John DOE





The patient

  1. The patient will receive a new email in his mailbox, once the therapist clicks on Send telehealth link to the patient.

NOTE:

  • The text of the email may change depending on the clinic. This is customizable in Point of Service > "Name of point of service" > Personalized message.
  • If the patient does not receive the email, he must be asked to look in spam.
  • An email may take more or less time to arrive, this does not depend on the Medexa application.
