The short answer
Because doxy.me is built specifically for healthcare, with a dedicated focus on telehealth.
Your electronic health record (EHR) manages patient records and often supports scheduling and billing. Its built-in video may handle basic appointments, too.
Choose doxy.me when you want dedicated telehealth tools for engaging patients, collecting consent, involving others in care, and preparing appointment notes, while keeping your existing EHR. Built specifically for healthcare, doxy.me focuses on the virtual appointment experience.
01
Engage patients and do more during each visit
A video connection gets the conversation started. But care can also involve explaining an exercise, reviewing a document, collecting consent, or bringing a family member into the appointment.
Doxy.me offers tools for those moments:
Feature availability varies by plan. Compare these workflows with what your EHR currently offers, rather than assuming its built-in video provides everything you need.
02
Make joining straightforward for patients
Patients join doxy.me through a link in their browser. They don’t need a doxy.me account, password, or app download.
For someone preparing to discuss their health, that’s one less setup task before the appointment. It also gives you a clear invitation to share: open this link to meet with your provider.
03
Use doxy.me alongside your EHR
Conduct appointments in doxy.me while managing patient records in your existing electronic health record (EHR).
On the Premium plan, webhooks can send visit-event notifications to a system your team configures, helping connect parts of your workflow.
Explore the webhook guide with your technical team to understand what your setup can support.
04
Give your virtual appointments more possibilities
Choose doxy.me when your care calls for more than a video connection. Its dedicated telehealth tools help you adapt the appointment to what your patients need, whether you’re explaining an exercise, reviewing consent, or involving family in care.
