Direct messaging

Fax continues to be the most common way to exchange patient information in the Healthcare industry. Paper-based fax presents many challenges for healthcare organizations, including limited connectivity, increased costs and slow care coordination. Direct messaging is now emerging as an alternative form of secure and interoperable data exchange between providers.

Meaningful connectivity starts with OpenText™ RightFax™ Healthcare Direct. Leveraging the most trusted and connected digital fax server in healthcare, OpenText™ RightFax™, RightFax Healthcare Direct sends and receives content via fax or Direct messages, connects the care team and accelerates interoperability.

RightFax is the first fax solution to enable Direct-compliant electronic communications between providers. Leveraging the RightFax infrastructure, RightFax Healthcare Direct provides fax-to-Direct message conversion.

With RightFax Healthcare Direct, health systems can seamlessly transition to modern, secure and interoperable exchange of patient documentation, with limited changes to their current processes.

Turns outbound faxes, unstructured documents, into structured Direct messages, enabling seamless record inclusion into the patient’s chart.

Delivers any type of document, wrapped in a structured format, to and from any EHR system. RightFax offers more pre-built integrations than any fax server on the market.

Offers paperless, easy-to-use digital faxing from Epic, available on App Orchard, that reduces costs and increases HIPAA compliance.

Creates and sends a Direct message automatically when RightFax finds a Direct address associated with the sender’s fax number in a national network directory. If no Direct address is found, the content is sent as a secure fax.

Exchanges Direct messages with pre-built connectors for multi-function printers (MFP), including Ricoh®, Konica Minolta® and Xerox® devices. These connectors provide fax-to-Direct conversion for outbound transmissions when sending from the MFP device.

Provide and access documents in realtime at the point of care with interoperable Direct messages.

Enhance continuity of care for patients, resulting in safer transitions of care and improved patient outcomes.

Transition to better forms of electronic exchange with a reduction of inefficient fax and paper management, freeing time for patient care.
