Sign-up process for a patient who is new to the patient portal |
Patient Portal Sign-up
|
 |
This map shows how to work with a patient to establish portal access for the patient during an office visit as part of the appointment check-in process.
The map targets patients who are more likely to use a patient portal, e.g. patients with chronic issues who need frequent office visits.

Demonstration of patient portal benefits and patient portal training to increase patient use |
Patient Portal Demo and Training
|
 |
This map shows how to increase portal utilization by engaging with a patient at various points during an office visit, e.g. when patients wait for the next step in their care. It illustrates how staff-patient interactions present opportunities to highlight the benefits.
To increase efficiency, the workflow targets patients who are more likely to use a portal, e.g. patients with chronic issues who can benefit from remote care.

Patient Portal Demo and Training Sub-Process
|
 |
This map depicts a strategy to conduct a portal demo followed by hands-on portal training for the patient, where patients can see how the portal can benefit their care.
The premise is that when patients are assisted in discovering how a portal helps improve care, they become more likely to use it. This is similar to training the clinical staff how to use an EHR.

Patient portal education and guidance by an MD/NP during a patient visit to increase patient use |
Patient Portal Education by MDs and NPs
|
 |
This map shows how to leverage the relationships between patients and MDs and NPs to increase portal utilization. It highlights how patient education by a trusted MD or NP makes it more likely that patients will use the portal.
To limit the time needed from an MD or NP, the map targets patients who can benefit the most from using the portal, e.g. patients with chronic issues who can benefit from monitoring trends in their related lab test data.
