    Patient portal CapMinds is a primary component of OpenEMR. It enables patients to communicate with their providers before their appointments, fill out and sign forms and even have call consultations with health professionals.

  2. Under the medicare system of payment adjustment, eligible clinicians may get a payment bonus, payment penalty or no adjustment of payment under the Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) program. Healthcare providers can choose from different methods for reporting to MIPS, with Electronic Health Records (EHR) and registries being the most popular methods. EHR has the patients medical information in digital format, while the registry has more comprehensive analytics information and is designed for submission to MIPS. Each of these options have their own disadvantages and advantages. Hence, the health care provider should compare each option carefully before finding the most suitable option based on the requirements of their organization.
