Updox in the News
Updox Helping Healthcare Providers Turn Patients Into Customers The advent of electronic health records (EHRs) revolutionized the medical world by digitizing patient charts and information. What EHRs did not change, however, is the need for out-of-date communications between doctors and patients – paper slips for billing, phone calls for appointments, even faxes for health records. Updox, based in Columbus, Ohio, hopes to eliminate these clunky, out-of-date systems by aggregating all of this communication into one central, secure, web-based location to create a seamless, electronic flow of information between doctors and patients.
