CRUK patient portal
The cancer patient portal provided by Patients Know Best is an electronic patient-controlled record that is hosted within the NHS N3 network. It is designed for use by individuals, NHS Trusts, Local Authorities, Charities, Social Enterprises and other organisations involved in the care of patients with cancer from a plurality of providers that might be across various geographical regions and services.
Through a web-based application, the cancer patient portal solution puts the patient in control of their health records and, by granting access to specific care providers, creates a single instance of the relevant care record. Such an approach helps improve the quality, efficiency and effectiveness of care delivery.
Allowing patients to securely access their own health information and providing them with the ability to connect every health professional and carer together in one place enables them to take control of their own health. Key features include integration with other electronic medical records systems, online consultations, lab results, symptom tracking, interactive care plans, secure messaging with the ability to attach files (e.g. videos, pictures and documents of up to 10GB per file) between patient-professional and professional-professional.
The cancer patient portal also provides access to a whole suit of integration and support services, including:
