Orlando Health does not endorse any particular third-party healthcare application vendor. If you have found a third-party healthcare app you want to integrate with your Patient Portal health information, you'll need to enroll in that app, then work with that vendor to connect your health data. Once you have logged into your Patient Portal through the app, you will need to allow it access to your health data in the Patient Portal.
If you have any issues with the connection set-up, please contact the third-party application vendor.
Please note: We recommend you read the vendor's Terms and Conditions. Also note you must give this vendor access to your patient data in order for them to import it from your Patient Portal.
