EndoSoft® is pleased to announce that EndoVault® 3.2.1.0 has been validated by the Australian Digital Health Agency to use the Secure Message Delivery (SMD) platform, granting EndoVault® 3.2.1.0 users the ability to communicate key components of integrated and coordinated care of patients with providers that utilize the platform. All providers using the platform will also have the National Authentication Service for Health (NASH) certificate of security and be on the federal provider directory service consisting of multiple provider directories in Australia to send secure messages. This version of EndoVault® 3.2.1.0 was released on July 30, 2020.
The key benefits of using the SMD platform include interoperability and streamlining the workflow for healthcare providers. The SMD platform provides enhanced security and prevents the unauthorized interception of clinical information and documents. Any provider sending a message receives a notification of the successful message delivery and decryption by intended organizations or providers. The use of SMD will reduce paper correspondence and time spent by medical personnel managing clinical documents and information. These benefits will improve the security & timeliness of clinical information, therefore improving the quality of care received.
Adding another layer of interoperability to EndoSoft’s market-leading EMR software, the Secure Message Delivery offers increased functionality to their providers via supporting documents, including MDM discharge summaries, e-referrals, specialist letters, and patient referrals (REF-I12). These functionalities enable:
- Enhanced search capabilities across multiple secure messaging providers via a federated provider directory service
- Interoperability and message exchange with different secure messaging-enabled software products via standardization
- The ability to securely exchange messages based on current and future Australian encryption standards
