Practice Fusion Violates Some Physicians’ Trust in Emails to Their Patients
- skmurphy 13y agoKey grafs (blog post from Aug-21-2013): Practice Fusion turned on a feature that would email every single patient whenever a progress note was created in the Practice Fusion EHR. The email came addressed as being sent from the doctor and asked the patient to rate and review their provider. See http://www.emrandhipaa.com/emr-and-hipaa/2013/01/22/physician-ranking-websites-the-bad-the-worse-and-the-ugly/ http://www.emrandhipaa.com/emr-and-hipaa/2013/01/22/physicia... Physician Ranking Websites – The Bad, The Worse and the Ugly where I discuss in detail the challenges for any physician rating website, so I won’t go into that here. The value of physician ratings aside, I don’t have any problem with Practice Fusion collecting physician ratings and reviews. What I am concerned with is how they did it.
