Secure and real-time access to critical medical records. The patient is being treated at a clinic that has an Extranet from which the physician can download the test results. The physician needs to review the results after normal business hours. After reviewing the medical records, the physician will recommend the appropriate course of treatment. The physician seeking remote access would pre-register with the clinic, AMA, or the insurance provider.
Patients also benefit because of their ability to have more universal access to proper care.
