TSI Healthcare: A healthcare portal has to have patients the way a clinic does

With the successful implementation of online healthcare systems and databases, TSI Healthcare has not ceased to promote the merits of going electronic. While it has furnished up-and-running patient portals across several healthcare providers, information blast is the current challenge.



Getting patients to register in implemented portals could be as tricky as any publicity stunt. When misdirected, a portal could languish like a virtual white elephant, while outmoded healthcare systems continue to run and pile up costs. It is of primacy that patients be in the know of their online options, especially when traveling to the hospital is impossible under certain health conditions.

Generating awareness takes more work than uploading healthcare presence. It also requires the cooperation of hospital systems. Information dissemination on the existence of a portal should be systematized in hospitals. TSI Healthcare suggests strategic points like waiting rooms, check-in areas, and physicians’ receiving areas for the distribution of publicity materials like brochures and flyers.



Word of mouth also has a key role in encouraging online enrollments. It is not enough to make a system known. People should know that it works, too, and that it is a secure, trusted method for taking advantage of one’s medical benefits.
