After this session, attendees should be able to:

  1. Identify at least three types of medical information college health providers can communicate with their patients via a secure electronic web portal.
  2. Identify at least three types of information student/patients can send to their college health providers via a secure electronic web portal.
  3. Identify three ways electronic communication with patients can improve clinic efficiency.

Program Abstract:
Password secured patient portals make it possible to provide patient access to electronic chart contents including progress notes, labs, xray results, patient education materials as well as a vehicle for secure messaging with providers, all directly recordable in the electronic chart. The college health center can teach students how to become cutting edge health care technology consumers, using all the online tools available for informed decision-making, effective communication with the health care team, and access to accurate patient education materials.  This presentation will provide a summary of the benefits of providing on line medical chart access in a college health setting.
