Updox overview

What is Updox?

Updox is a cloud-based HIPAA compliant telemedicine solution that enables healthcare providers, pharmacists, and long-term care facilities to streamline operations related to patient engagement, communications, team collaboration, document management, and more. Professionals can utilize the platform to schedule appointments or recurring reminders, process online payments, and collect various forms.

Updox allows organizations to communicate with patients and team members via SMS or video chat as well as attach media, forms, or documents according to individual requirements. Users can collaborate with remote team members, maintain a staff and patient directory, and communicate with colleagues via personal or public conversation rooms. Plus, professionals can utilize the broadcasting functionality to send targeted messages to specific patients and remind them about upcoming physical examinations, checkups, immunizations, and more.

Updox comes with an application programming interface (API), which helps organizations integrate the solution with several third-party electronic health record (EHR) systems. The electronic fax system helps users send, receive, and store documents, define access permissions, and assign tasks among team members.

Pros
“Maybe it saves a bit of time when compared to having a separate TXT messaging tool and secure fax but you pay a very high price for very little time saved.”

“They got us with a demo, promised the moon and then jack up the price when we have time vested in it.”

“Sometimes a little slow or glitchy, but outages are usually quickly addressed.”

Cons
“They have a very small window for termination and if you are late by 18 days, they will hold you to 1 year of payments.”

“increases in service charges, unreliable up time with frequent outages, difficult to create online documents, clunky integration with EHR”

“Price sold at the beginning of our business with them was great, but when they increased, it went up 500%. When they have an outage (which seems to happen with regularity), it literally cripples our office.”
