Frequently Asked Questions
- Dan books in to see his Primary Care Physician, Dr. Dorian, after suffering from knee pain for several weeks and showing no signs of improvement. Dr. Dorian evaluates Dan and recommends a referral to a Specialist. Dr. Dorina’s office has two options:
Option#1:Direct referral
Option#2 ePrescribe - Dr. Dorian’s Front Office Manager Jen logs onto MedMatch Network, locates an orthopedic surgeon with positive reviews who accepts Dan’s insurance, and makes the referral for the next slot available.
- MedMatch Network pre-qualifies Dan’s insurance and schedules the consultation automatically.
- Jen uploads Dan’s patient records to the MedMatch Network portal.
- MedMatch Network sends Dan reminders of the upcoming appointment through text.
- Dr.Dorian’s front Office Manager Sends a Link to Dan Which he opens on the MedMatch Network patient app.
- Dan picks from a list of prequalified providers, schedule, and confirm his own appointment.
- Dr. Quinn sends their consultation notes to Dr. Dorian via the MedMatch Network portal, so neither of them misses a beat in Dan’s continuum of care.

Today. Getting started is easy. With no software to install with MedMatch Network’s cloud-based platform, simply click here and register your practice to start making, receiving, and managing enhanced referrals.
It takes four full-time employees to manage one medical referral with the current system of EHR eFax and endless back-and-forth to schedule appointments. In addition it can take up to 2 weeks on average to schedule and confirm a patient’s appointment This drains resources from overworked medical offices, who are already grappling with a referral leakage cost of nearly a million dollars per doctor each year.
With MedMatch Network, only one employee is needed to manage medical referrals. Your referral management system is kept in one convenient location, making it easy for office staff to make and confirm referrals, as well as upload patient records, and for physicians to communicate across the continuum of care.
More time saved = more money back in your pockets. It’s what we call a win-win scenario.
MedMatch Network makes it easy for patients to meet with doctors by automatically matching those who accept their insurance at the earliest appointment available and by sending text reminders leading up to the appointment.
No more waiting months on end for an appointment, only to find out the doctor no longer accepts their insurance. No more fax referrals getting lost in the shuffle of a busy office and never getting scheduled. No more endless waiting, often in pain, with no end in sight.
