Getting Started with HCRpath

What is HCRpath?

Welcome to HCRpath. Our portal provides your practice the ability to streamline operations distributing and organizing your patient’s Annual Wellness Visit (AWV) surveys digitally. Providers and medical staff can help patients complete AWV surveys in person if needed, and then providers can review the answers in our easy-to-use portal before, during and after the patient visit. Once reviewed, Providers have the ability to mark surveys as reviewed, locking the answers and making them ready for another member of the staff to prepare for billing and reimbursement. All members of the staff can easily use HCRpath to keep track of the status of the surveys, from the time they are outstanding to ready for billing.
