How does patient portal software Work?

Patient portal software is a secure online platform that requires a computer or smartphone device, and an internet connection to use it. The patient will be required to first register for an account, they will receive their secure username and password and instructions on how to access and use the portal. They will need to use their username and password to log into the secure portal, where they will be able to have access to their medical information, get in touch with their healthcare provider, receive reminders and alerts, request prescription refills, view educational materials, pay bills online and more.
