What is a Portal?
A Portal is an easy way for you to keep on top of your healthcare. It's is a secure website, accessed via your phone or computer, that contains all your healthcare data. You can access it anytime you like, 24/7. Book appointments, request prescriptions, check your recent blood test results, and more - all whenever you like, wherever you are. You can also make payments through your portal for your healthcare services. No more going in to clinics or lengthy phone calls on hold with reception!
Why Vensa's Portal?
There are several portals out there, but Vensa offers a few features that make life even easier. Our Portal has been designed with you in mind. We endeavour to make our user experience as intuitive and simple as possible, making it easy for you to look after yourself and your whānau.
Our "Care Circle" / "Dependants" section makes looking after your loved ones easier. Add friends, whānau and dependants to your account to include them in your Care Circle and you can access healthcare services and data on their behalf (with appropriate consent). You can book appointments, request prescriptions and see your health data - all through your own Portal account (available services may differ from clinic to clinic).
With the Vensa Portal you can also:
- Book, change and cancel medical appointments
- View your list of medications, allergies, and long term conditions (really handy for unplanned doctors visits!)
- Organise healthcare for your whānau with our "Care Circle"
- Request repeat scripts online and pick up from your preferred pharmacy
- Make secure payments for your scripts to your medical centre
- View your lab test results, and any comments made by your doctor
- Lookup your immunisation history
At Vensa we are continually improving our Portal to give you, the user, the best experience possible. Feedback from users and healthcare providers helps us refine and enhance our Portal.
