In this video, we’ll review how to use MedBridge’s EMR integration to efficiently send your patients home exercise programs, and automatically document them in your EMR.
Start by signing into your EMR and selecting your patient. Once selected, your patient’s name will appear in the header.
Next, launch MedBridge by clicking Tools, Launch, and then MedBridge. For the best experience, we recommend accessing MedBridge in Firefox or Chrome. If you use a different browser by default, we recommend copying and pasting the URL into Firefox or Chrome.
Once you’ve launched MedBridge, be sure to verify the patient’s name, then click Build Home Program and search for the exercises you’d like. You can add exercises by clicking and dragging them into the exercise program builder, or by clicking “Add.”
Once you’ve built your program, you can save the program or share it with your patient via Email, Text, or Print. Sharing programs via email and text message makes logging in a breeze for patients, leading to increased adherence and patient satisfaction. All options will automatically save the program back into your EMR. Once you have saved or sent your program, you will see a banner at the bottom of the screen that says 'Program Saved'.
To see a saved copy of the program, navigate back to Patient Documentation in the EMR. Click Refresh, and the program will appear as an attachment.
You can also launch MedBridge from Casamba Scheduling. Similarly, after selecting your patient, click Tools, Launch, and MedBridge, to be brought into the MedBridge platform.
Since you have already created a program for this patient, click “Update Program” in order to generate a new attachment.
From here, you can add, delete, and edit exercises. Once you’ve made your changes, click Save. The banner will appear at the bottom of the screen to confirm that everything has been sent over to the EMR correctly. Your patient will automatically see the updated program the next time they log into the MedBridge app or online patient portal.
You can go back into Scheduling and refresh by changing between the clinic locations. Next, you can double click on the attachments. Here, we see that the second attachment was correctly sent over, and the second program includes the edits we made.
Thanks for watching our demonstration on the MedBridge Casamba integration.
