Your patient wants to share their medical data with you.
Welcome to emTRUTH. Let’s tell you a little about ourselves.
A history the patient brings you — meds, allergies, conditions, prior visits etc.
Imaging you can open – Bye thumb drives and discs
New patients don't start as a blank intake form
Nothing to install, integrate, or maintain
Zero cost. Zero catch – We are all patients; we all need this.
Very Secure
The Goldilocks Data Dilemma
Too Little
Too Much / Disorganized
Just Right - The Goal
Where the records come from
Patients connect their own sources. Today that includes:
Their healthcare providers, through standard record-sharing connections
Medicare, for patients enrolled and choosing to connect it
Documents and images they add themselves, including studies from facilities that aren't connected
What you see depends on what they've connected and chosen to share. It might not be everything, everywhere — but it's considerably more than arrives on a typical intake form.
The patient has full control of their data. Here's what that means for you.
The patient decides what to share. They can grant you access, limit it to a portion of their record, or revoke it at any time. What reaches you is what they've chosen to send. This protects both patient and healthcare institution. The data stored on your servers is a liability and target for hackers. Wouldn’t be nice to only have the responsibility of patient data, when you are treating them?
Every record carries its source. You can see where a given result or note came from, so you're not weighing information of unknown origin.
It supports your workflow — it doesn't replace it. Keep confirming history with the patient and applying your own judgment. A shared record is a better starting point, not a substitute for the conversation.
emTRUTH doesn't read, alter, or interpret clinical content. The platform is encrypted and built so that we can't access what patients store. We make sharing possible and verifiable; the clinical read is yours.
What this can change in your day
You can start the visit better informed
The average primary care visit runs about 18 minutes. Any part of the history you're not reconstructing from scratch is time that goes back to the patient in front of you. In an emergency, data access delays care and increases the chance of complications. SOURCE
You may be able to see the scans, not just read about them
When imaging is in a patient's record, it comes through with everything else — no discs, no waiting on an outside facility, How many appointments have been wasted because the data can’t be read or accessed?
More complete information supports safer prescribing
Adverse drug events account for roughly 700,000 emergency department visits and 100,000 hospitalizations in the US each year,³ and among outpatients, around half of adverse drug reactions are considered preventable.⁴ A fuller medication and allergy picture — including what other providers have added since you last saw the patient — is one more check working in your favor. SOURCE
Fewer blind spots at the outset
Diagnostic errors are associated with an estimated 371,000 deaths and 424,000 permanent disabilities in the US each year.⁴ No records platform prevents those. But incomplete information at the point of care is a recognized contributing factor, and a shared history is one way to narrow that gap. SOURCE
New patients arrive with context
Someone who's relocated, switched practices, or just been discharged from an ER can share what they have on day one — rather than you waiting weeks on a records request that may or may not arrive complete.
How often do you get to see a complete patient history?
Very few can see the whole picture. That's not on you. Would you like to see more of the picture. Faster patient onboarding.
You already know how this goes. A patient comes in with a complaint that doesn't quite fit. They've seen a few other doctors. Someone ordered imaging you can't open. They're on a medication they can't name, prescribed by an office that's closed until Monday.
For patients with complex or hard-to-pin-down conditions, the road to an answer can run years and several physicians, with wrong turns along the way.¹ and the percentage of those patients are growing. That's rarely a reflection of the clinicians involved. It's what happens when everyone gets a partial view and no one gets the whole one.
emTRUTH won't close every gap. What it does is give the patient one place to gather what exists — and a straightforward way to hand it to you before the appointment starts, instead of after.
Don’t have a big-EHR budget - Interoperability Issues
If you're independent, small, or specialty, you likely don't have an interoperability team, an HIE membership, or IT staff to route this through. You don't need one. The patient shares their record; you review it. That's the implementation.
(And if you're inside a large system: same wall, different side of it. Departments and vendors that don't talk to each other produce the same missing chart.)
What else it offers
Records that travel with the patient. Their history isn't tied to your system, your vendor, or your practice remaining open. If you change EHRs, or they change doctors, the record goes with them.
Data they hold, not data you're storing. Every record a practice stores is a record it answers for. When patients hold their own data, you're working from what they share rather than adding to what sits on your servers. You can work with the patient for the data partnership that suits you both and build your own records as required.
No cost to your practice. No subscription. No infrastructure. No hidden fees.
