AUGUSTA, Maine, Sept. 10, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- 5thPort, LLC, a healthtech company with a cutting-edge digital patient engagement platform has entered into an agreement with OMS National Insurance Company, RRG (OMSNIC) to license their informed consent forms.
The 5thPort Platform allows providers to digitally engage directly with patients pre- and post-operatively with high quality educational videos, comprehension testing and eConsent. Patients and/or their caregivers can participate on their desktop or mobile device either at home or in the office waiting area.
"OMS is a fast-growing specialty for 5thPort and this licensing agreement is a big win for 5thPort and for OMS practices across the nation," said Navroze Eduljee, CEO of 5thPort. "5thPort not only maintains and keeps current all procedure specific OMSNIC informed consent language, it dynamically creates the eConsent form based on the procedure or procedures selected, greatly reducing paperwork and streamlining workflow in the office," added Eduljee.
The use of informed consent forms supports efforts to improve patient education and patient safety. "This agreement ensures that 5thPort's OMS clients have access to the most up-to-date informed consent forms through an automated update distribution process, thus reducing the administrative burden on OMS practices," said Patricia Pigoni, COO of OMSNIC.
