Medfusion is a leading healthcare website development company based in Raleigh, North Carolina. Originally established in 1996, Medfusion began providing website development and support to healthcare clients such as hospitals, physician groups, and insurance companies. In working with healthcare entities, Medfusion developed healthcare-specific interactive elements such as physician directories, eligibility software, and interactive survey taking applications.
In 1998, Medfusion released the Virtual Office SuiteTM for our physician practice clients who were asking for secure, interactive solutions for improving patient communications. Since that time, the company has continued to enhance the Virtual Office Suite, expanding the capabilities to meet the needs of physicians in the area of secure, HIPAA compliant, physician-patient online interaction.
Integral to the Virtual Office SuiteTM are web-based interactive applications that allow physicians to securely engage their patients online or over the telephone. While many features increase efficiency, Medfusion has also implemented the ability to charge patients where appropriate for online interactions thus generating additional revenue for practices. Key elements of the Virtual Office Suite are online Appointment Requests, Appointment Reminders, Prescription Renewals, Virtual Office Visits, Lab Results Reporting, Patient Medical Histories, and Formal Patient Education.
In addition to the interactive web applications, the Medfusion Virtual Office SuiteTM website provides comprehensive informational features, designed specifically for physician practices. These features include News, Services, Insurance, Patient Education Links, as well as a number of other categories that specifically address the everyday functions of a busy physician practice.
Most unique among physician practice websites, Medfusion's Site Generator Website Administration Tool allows a physician practice to quickly and easily change, add, or delete the custom content on their website through a password protected website interface. Our clients also have the ability to control their website's interactive functionality, activating their website's interactive applications as each physician determines appropriate for his or her practice.
