"It is really neat to be able to treat a patient online and prescribe a medication if we are comfortable with it, and still get paid for our time! Also it has decreased our unpaid and high liability "phone medicine" that we used to practice.

Ask a Doctor has been very helpful with giving patients general answers to their medical questions and sometimes we can 'cure' a patient online. Otherwise we can refer them in the right direction including suggesting follow-up appointments with us. We love all the medical functions of our website and the easy ability for our staff to keep our site updated and fresh with great ideas!"

"We really like the pre-registration for new patients. It routinely takes a patient ten to twenty minutes to fill out our new patient paperwork. With the online pre-registration, the patient can complete it at home prior to their appointment. This streamlines the check-in process upon arrival. The patient checks in, nurse takes the patient back and after they have their vitals done, the doctor actually starts on time. Additionally, the information is legible. The doctors have more time to spend face to face taking care of the patients' needs, rather than asking the same question that they just answered on paper. The doctors also can refer them to the website for educational information on their specific problems."

When Dr. Keith and his partners were planning the opening of their practice they realized the immediate need for an interactive website. Dr. Keith contacted Medfusion and described his need for a robust and interactive web presence. Within weeks, the new practice had a fully customized and interactive website designed to their specifications. Medfusion supported their broad range of needs from patient education videos to online appointment requests. ADH's patients now have secure and convenient access to their chosen provider.

"Patients like the convenience of requesting an appointment on line. Also, patients that download the forms, to fill out and bring with them to their appointment have noticed a difference in their time in the office."

Premier Medical Group

Premier Medical Group in Jackson, MS is an internal medicine practice specializing in comprehensive adult care. The practice emphasizes wellness and prevention, and so its website encourages patients to seek out information from websites that the practice recommends. Premier Medical Group's Chief Executive Officer Jim Bethea commented on his organization's positive experience with its new website:

"The response from our patients, referral sources, and staff to our website has been fantastic. In particular, the video patient education provides a unique high tech touch that separates our practice from others in our geographic area. Even better, we were able to gain these benefits by reallocating to our website money that had previously been budgeted to yellow pages advertising."

This group, located in Atlanta, GA, had been using email to communicate with patients for prescription refills and appointment requests. Patients liked the convenience of communicating online, so the practice looked for a way to meet patient needs and HIPAA guidelines when it contracted with Medfusion. Over time, Sandy Springs Internal Medicine has increased the number of solutions it uses. These solutions have reduced staff time spent on administrative functions and has helped the practice operate more efficiently.

Dr. Neil Baum, a nationally recognized Urologist, speaker, and author has been in the private practice of urology in New Orleans, LA, since 1978. Dr. Baum was seeking a way to build a website that would complement is practice and give him an avenue to share his many articles, videos, presentations and speeches as well as securely communicating with his patients online.

After consulting with Medfusion for a chapter in his most recent book, Dr. Baum felt he could build a website that met both his patient education and secure communication needs. With the use of Medfusion's Virtual Office Suite, Dr. Baum's patients are currently using secure appointment requests, symptom assessment, Rx renewals, and online consult modules. Not only is Dr. Baum's website visited by his patients but many medical professionals and information seekers visit his site daily to view his extensive informative content.
