ReferralMD Enhances eConsults and Deepens ConferMED Partnership

ReferralMD’s new Consult Management features and expanded partnership with ConferMED strengthen eConsults, enhancing patient care and cost savings.

ReferralMD, the leader in care coordination and patient access technology, announces the release of its new Consult Management features and the extension of its partnership with ConferMED. With eConsults, ReferralMD improves the patient experience, reduces costs, and expands the scope of primary care by providing crucial clinical guidance from specialists.

Primary care providers can confer with specialists through eConsults before making referrals for face-to-face care. Organizations can send consult requests to specialists in their internal network and in the ConferMED virtual network, ensuring that eConsults are reviewed promptly.

The key enhancements in the Consult Management solution include:

  • Structured Workflow with Customization
  • Automated Alerts Similar to Referrals
  • Access to ConferMED Virtual Specialist Network
  • Customizing In-Network Specialist Availability
  • Converting Consults to Referrals
  • New Consult Management Reports

“By extending the care coordination capabilities in our platform, providers can seamlessly incorporate eConsults and Referrals into their workflow through a tight integration with their EHRs,” stated Rick Hammer, Chief Product Officer at ReferralMD. “We are also deepening our collaboration with ConferMED to give our customers access to ConferMED’s impressive network of specialists focused on eConsults.”

Daren Anderson, MD, President of ConferMED, states, “Referrals from primary care to specialists are a pain point for practices and patients. Our partnership with ReferralMD offers a complete end-to-end solution to help primary care providers meet as many of their patient’s needs as possible in their clinics while efficiently managing the process of referring to outside specialists whenever needed.”

With these new Consult Management features, ReferralMD continues to demonstrate its commitment to advancing healthcare technology and providing innovative solutions that revolutionize how primary and specialty care providers collaborate.
