Patient information through a secure, ephemeral channel

Patients submit insurance cards, medical records, consent forms, and photos of conditions through encrypted, self-destructing links. No patient data in email.

The problem

The way most organizations handle this today is a liability.

📧

PHI in email

Patients email photos of insurance cards and medical documents. That protected health information now lives on email servers indefinitely.

📱

Texted photos

Patients text photos of skin conditions or injuries to their provider. Those images live on both phones and in carrier logs.

⚠

Regulatory exposure

Every unsecured copy of patient data is a potential regulatory violation. Fines can reach tens of thousands of dollars per incident.

How it works

A single secure channel from request to destruction.

1
Provider

Generates a Secretary Link for the patient

2
Patient

Clicks the link, uploads insurance card photos, consent forms, medical records

3
Provider

Views the submission, downloads to the EHR, submission is destroyed

4
System

No PHI lingering in email, text messages, or shared drives

Real-world scenarios

Referral documents
