The RelayHealth division of McKesson Corp. will offer its patient-physician connectivity software through Microsoft Corp.s HealthVault consumer health platform.
RelayHealths software enables patients to communicate electronically with providers and payers for such functions as scheduling requests, test results, prescription refill requests, paying bills and online patient-physician consultations.
Through the partnership with Redmond, Wash.-based Microsoft, physicians also will be able to access Atlanta-based RelayHealths electronic prescribing service, according to the vendors. Patients will be able to share their personal health records with their physicians using the connectivity software.
