EmedSafe is a simple web-based tool for sending messages securely
and privately. It can be used like any other web-based email system,
and adds a critical
feature that other services lack: a secure method of transmitting
documents. The level of security is as strong as your browser's
encryption and as safe as the password you share with your
recipient. Secure messages are delivered much like an e-card whereby
you create a message that is stored on EmedSafe's servers.
EmedSafe then sends the message and document to the intended
recipient via open email where the message can be viewed only by
providing the correct password. This is one you've either previously
arranged or for which a hint that, presumably, only the recipient
will be able to interpret. The actual message never gets sent to the
recipient's inbox but rather is communicated solely via the web.

FINANCIAL BENEFITS OF EmedSafe In an era of HIPAA compliance, low profitability, audit trails and legal liability, the cost of transmitting paper-based information generated by a single patient or healthcare episode can be significant. Dollars are spent every day to Prepare, Fax, or courier patient related messages and information. Recent studies by the Rheiner Guide show that up to 25¢ of every dollar a medical enterprise earns is consumed by the generation, movement and tracking of paper. Your enterprise can quickly reclaim some of those lost profits by implementing EmedSafe Secure Email and document transmission. Luckily there is a smart solution. EmedSafe has developed a system for HIPAA compliance, increased profitability, provide audit trails and reduce liability. EmedSafe systems are virtually free if your healthcare enterprise mails only ONE letter a day, TWO-page fax transmissions or sends ONE courier package every few weeks. The rest of the money goes to your bottom line. That's quite significant when you consider the combination of cost reduction and increased staff utilization. Use of EmedSafe can add up to many thousands of dollars in cost reductions and staff capacity increase. Click here to see our cost comparison. |

EmedSafe - HOW IT WORKS Using EmedSafe is as easy as any other web-based email system. You can only use it through your browser. There are no options for POP service to your local email handling client. All web communications to EmedSafe occur over HTTPS so the contents of what you send and receive are secure. If you elect to send a message unencrypted, the recipient will get it just like any other email message. EmedSafe removes any header information that might reveal the actual point of origin from which you are accessing and sending your EmedSafe message. The default send mode is unsecured. You must specifically click on the Compose Secure Message link to set up the secure method. You can also create different signatures to amend to the end of your messages, set up multiple folders and create an address book.
