• Assisted My Health Record registration of patients.
• Connection to the My Health Record to:
  • Determine if a patient has an eHealth record.
  • View a patient’s eHealth record;
  • Post clinical documents into this record including:
    • discharge summaries;
    • prescription and dispense records;
    • event summaries;
    • shared health summaries; and
    • specialist letters.
  • Package these documents prior to submission.
