Who Can Message
The computer looks at their past and future appointments and identifies the providers throughout VUMC that the patients have seen or are scheduled to see The patients will then immediately have access to message only those doctors with whom they have a relationship
Since this has been in the pilot mode there have been very few clinics participating
We are now in the process of rolling out to all of the Medical Center

MessagingIt is very important that you understand how patient messaging
works because it is a little different than regular messaging
Patients are able to log on to My HealthatVanderbilt remotely and send a message to their provider’s office
These messages always go to a designated message basket (secretary or nurse’s basket) , mimicking what would happen if they had called on the telephone, and should be handled in the same way
They do not go directly to the doctor’s basket

Initiating messages Patient messages should be handled as you would handle ANY other message Be sure to save them when complete, just like you would any other message
Back to Contents
www.MyHealthatVanderbilt.com
15
Initiating messages The only part of a message that the patient will see is when you intentionally hit the green button. Then it ONLY sends what is currently in the text box, nothing prior to it
Back to Contents
The provider can dialogue back and forth with the nurse about an issue and the patient is not able to see anything until it is finally typed into a message to the patient and sent with the green The button . Then, only the most recent message that you type into the text box goes to the patient
www.MyHealthatVanderbilt.com
16
Initiating messages At any point when you open up a new message on a patient who has signed up for My Health at Vanderbilt you will be able to see the familiar green link on the right side of the message, indicating that this is a patient you can message, and allowing you to send a message to them

Messaging
When you send a message to the patient, the message is now saved to the chart right away
Messages in the same thread are grouped by date in the All view. For example, if you send 4 messages to a patient using the same thread in one day, there will only be one entry in the All view
Back to Contents
www.MyHealthatVanderbilt.com
18
Messaging Though you may save a message to the chart, the patient can later add to the message and it will reappear in the designated message basket with the old text and whatever new the patient typed
Please remember that every time the patient sends a message to us, even if they are responding to a question, the message goes to a designated message basket. This prevents messages from being lost in a basket that is not being covered if, for instance, the physician is out of town.

Initiating a reminder
Future messages in the same thread can be seen when you open the past message from the All view. For example, if there are 2 messages in the same thread, one sent last week, and one sent today, there will be 2 entries of that thread in the All view. If you click on the last week message, you'll see a button that says "Click to see all messages in this thread".

Future Messages Future messages in the same thread can be seen when you open the past message from the All view For example, if there are 2 messages in the same thread, one sent last week, and one sent today, there will be 2 entries of that thread in the All view
If you click on the last week message, you'll see a button that says "Click to see all messages in this thread".

Patient Notification Every time you send a message to the patient through their My HealthatVanderbilt account, an email will be sent to their regular email account, notifying them that they have a message from their provider and allowing them to click on a link that takes them to My HealthatVanderbilt home page

24
No email address listedYou will receive a message notifying you if the patient does not have an email address listed

25
Bounce Back Feature In the event that the patient does not check their email or if they have not opened the message in five (5) days, the message will “bounce back” to you notifying you of this Then you can mail them or call them as you normally would have done before My HealthatVanderbilt

26
Sending a Patient LetterYes, there is also the ability for providers who use Patient Letter to directly send these letters to patients by the web interface with a click of the button instead of mailing. This should reduce phone calls and typing.
It is important to understand how the system works, as you will increasingly begin receiving patient messages into the PSR or nurse baskets, and patients will be signing up for this service and may ask you questions.
