Frequently Asked Questions

ishareid-providersWhat does iShare Medical® Messaging do?
iShare Medical® Messaging provides you with the ability to securely exchange medical records, medical data, and messages between trusted individuals regardless of EHR or if the provider has no EHR at all. It’s about getting the right information on the right patient to the right provider at the right time, every time.

Who is a trusted individual?
iShare Medical® ID-Proofs every person before issuing that person an iShareID Direct address and a secret key. The iShareID Direct is an address that uniquely identifies an individual in the health care system. The individual can be a patient or a provider such as a physician, nurse practitioner, physician assistant, physical therapist, dentist or staff member of a provider such as a medical assistant, nurse, administrator, scheduler, receptionist, or biller. This means that you will know who is sending and receiving the message. iShare Medical® Messaging can be used to safely and securely send and receive messages to and from medical providers and to and from patients.

Can I exchange data with individuals who don’t have iShare Medical® Messaging?
Yes, as long as the individual has been ID-Proofed by a trusted agent and has a “Direct Address”.

Can I exchange data with providers who don’t use my EHR?

Messages are sent over a safe and secure encrypted network.

Delivering secure health informationWhat kind of data content can be exchanged using iShare Medical® Messaging?
Any message or attachment that can be attached to an email can be securely exchanged using iShare Medical® Messaging including Protected Health Information (PHI). Under the HIPAA Privacy Rule, healthcare providers and their business associates must protect the privacy of the patient’s identifiable health information in any format including electronic, paper or oral (verbal). The Privacy Rule calls this information “protected health information (PHI).” This includes:

  • Name
  • Address
  • Date of Birth
  • Social Security Number
  • Past, present or future physical or mental health or condition such as:
    • Patient Demographics
    • Medications / Prescriptions
    • Allergies

    • Payments
    • Balance due

iShare Medical® Messaging provides a secure way to exchange data and messages over an encrypted and authenticated nationwide network. Messages can be sent to individuals both inside and outside of your practice.

Why can’t I use regular email, chat or text messages to exchange medical information?
Sending unencrypted messages using tools like Gmail, Outlook, email, Google Chat, instant or text messages that contain identifiable patient information is a HIPAA violation which could be subject to steep fines.
