How is everyone addressing electronic Insurance Cards? We have an ever increasing amount of patients where a physical card is not being delivered, rather an electronic one on their mobile device or through an app. We currently have the Surescripts portal and I am not seeing an option for a patient to upload a copy of the card. We do have a workflow once the image of the card has been saved to the PC, but need to know how you are getting the image saved (patient emailing a copy from phone or app).
Thanks in advance!

Sirna- You may want to use the following workflow:
1. Ask patient for her cell number and text them a link from a CPS integrated (single sign on/oAuth) site.
2. Patient clicks on the link and uploads the pic from her phone.
3. You see the image on your desktop and save it wherever you want to save it.
Hope this helps.

What does your group utilize for the CPS integrated (single sign on/oAuth) site?

Sirna-
We are not a clinical practice. We are a Centricity partner and out solution is integrated with Centricity using oAuth. The workflow I gave you is one of the workflow our product has (a little bit more polished than I described above). But we do many other things, so out product will be an overkill for your needs. So I just shared with you the workflow we have and if you have some engineering resources, you can develop it on your own.
Here in a bit more detail:
- Use oAuth to integrate with CPS.
- From your application, search patient using Patient API (FHIR API from CPS). This API will show you patient's name and cell number.
- Imagine a button next to patient result that would fire a link to patient (number is given by Patient API above).
- Patient gets the link and attached the card from her phone and submits. At this point, the link expires.
- You see the image on the page from where you sent the original text. You can download this pic and put it anywhere you want.
Hope that helps.
