VIPCARE EMBRACES VALANT ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORDS SYSTEM

On August 1, 2023, VIPCare staff began using the Valant Electronic Health Records system for all operations. For two months, we ran the Valant system in parallel with our old, paper records system while we learned the EHR program. As of September 30, paper is out, digital is in.

Executive Director Doug Thorpe said, “With Valant, all operations have become more efficient. Clients can fill out intake paperwork from their computer or phone, counselors can write notes or take payments with a few keystrokes, and we never have to enter the same information in more than one place.”

Valant EHR was made by counselors for counselors. It’s user friendly, while remaining highly secure. Clients can set up a portal to receive appointment reminders, check their balances, and have telehealth sessions.

Clients can get Valant’s MYIO app for mobile devices here: MYIO Patient Portal Help – Your Patient Experience Portal (valant.io)

The switch to the Valant EHR system was made possible by a grant to VIPCare from the Mary Morton Parsons Foundation.
