Medical Office Online: How long will it take to integrate?
TouchMD will start working on your request within 24 – 48 business hours. However, setup and completion of an integration requires coordination and scheduling with the Medical Office Online technical team. On average, Medical Office Online integrations take 2 – 4 weeks to complete.
Medical Office Online: What does it cost?
There is a one-time fee to setup an integration with Medical Office Online. An additional fee will be added to all subsequent TouchMD Monthly Maintenance invoices to maintain the Medical Office Online interface. The setup fee is to cover the time and resources spent by our IT and Integration teams to configure the integration between TouchMD and your EMR/EHR/PM system. The monthly fee is to maintain the connection between TouchMD and your EMR/EHR/PM system. With the integration, our system stores specific encrypted information on our server for each patient account to correctly link the patient between TouchMD and EMR/EHR/PM system. Storage of this information comes at a cost from our server host and the monthly fee covers those costs.
