Patients can access their clinical data through the patient portal, RevolutionPHR. Three actions are possible:
- View – allows a patient to review clinical data online.
- Download – allows a patient to save a copy of clinical data on their device.
- Transmit – allows a patient to send their clinical data to another entity via Direct messaging or standard email.
The three actions described above are available in two areas of RevolutionPHR: About Me and Appointments.
About Me
The three actions that are found in the Medical Record section are View, Download, and Send: See Example
- view: Provides an online view of the patient’s health information
- download: Two versions of the download action are available; readable format - pdf, and e-sharing format - xml.
- send info: Opens a new window allowing the user to transmit health information to someone else through Direct messaging or standard email: See Example
-
- If Direct is selected, the receiving clinician/entity must:
- be associated to the patient record in RevolutionEHR; and,
- have a Direct address logged in their External Provider profile in RevolutionEHR.

Appointments
Clinical data generated within the Appointments section is produced on a per-visit basis. The view, download, and transmit actions discussed above are found in two places: the Most Recent Visit section and the History section: See Example
- Two versions of the download action are available; readable format - pdf, and e-sharing format - xml.
- The Most Recent Visit section displays a patient’s last encounter with the practice. The History section displays all encounters a patient has had with the practice.
- Within the History section, note that the patient can download, view, or transmit all of their clinical encounter summaries at once through the associated links. See Example
- If the patient would like to narrow the focus of their search, a show all link allows all historical encounters to be displayed. See Example
- Each visit has its own dedicated view, download, download xml, and transmit links. See Example
- For patients with a long history with the practice, the Start Date and End Date fields can be used to narrow the list of visits to a specific date range of interest. See Example
