Certified EHRs are required to include the capability of sending secure messages and clinical documents directly to other providers' EHR systems from within your EHR. We may be able to help you connect to Sharp's Cerner and Allscripts EHRs for this type of secure messaging. Other tools — such as Collaborate and Synapse — provide you with additional insight beyond most EMR capabilities.
