Habersham Medical Center partnered with software company PocketHealth to give its 80,000 patients access to their medical reports and images via any device.
Through the PocketHealth website, patients will be able to access all of their imaging records through any device, eliminating the need for CD-ROMs and unnecessary traveling to the hospital to gain access to medical records, according to a June 17 press release.
Patients will also have access to PocketHealth's Report Reader functionality, which breaks down and defines complex medical terms found within radiology reports, allowing patients to gain better insights into their reports.
Physicians and healthcare professionals can also view patient images in full diagnostic quality or import those images into their local PACS for diagnosis with the new feature.
