Edina Eye Clinic, PA Launches Sophrona Sage Portal™
Minneapolis Ophthalmology clinic implements innovative online patient communication software that allows patients to pay bills and order contact lens around the clock even when offices are closed. This improves clinic efficiency and patient convenience.
Minneapolis, MN (PRWEB) June 30, 2006 –-
To increase office efficiency and patient convenience, Edina Eye Clinic PA, a well-established practice in the suburbs of Minneapolis, has implemented Sophrona Solutions Sage Portal™ as its new internet patient portal solution. The browser enabled, HIPPA secure product will be used by Edina Eye Clinic, PA to reduce phone call volume, increase speed and convenience of patient payment, and to give its patients a way of ordering contact lens online, paying for them and having them shipped to their homes, even when offices are closed.
“This helps our practice move into the 21st century with increased convenience for patients and for us. Now we can better manage our workflow and respond to contact lens orders on our time rather than being interrupted in the middle of other tasks,” said Office Manager and Surgical Coordinator, Lana Castle. “We wanted the ability to view and respond to patient communication quickly and easily. These are all basic features of Sophrona’s Sage Office Portal.”
Castle cited Sage Portal’s ability to take patient contact lens orders with or without the patient’s knowledge of their lens, charging patients the amount due, and enabling lens shipment to the patient’s home as key factors in choosing Sophrona’s patient portal solution.
