Saratoga Schenectady Gastroenterology Associates, P.C.

Saratoga Schenectady Gastroenterology Associates, P.C. (ssgastro.com) utilizes a patient portal system with different components. For online bill payment, they direct patients to a dedicated patient portal hosted by InstaMed. This indicates that InstaMed is their vendor for processing patient payments. Their website also features a "Patient Portal" section that allows patients to message staff or providers, request test results, request prescription refills, and request or send medical records. It's noted that their system for these functions does not require a username or password for the initial form submission, with staff responding by phone or secure email. This suggests that this part of their patient portal may function through secure online forms rather than a comprehensive portal requiring a login to view full health records. While the search results confirm the use of InstaMed for payments and describe the functionalities available through forms on the SSGA website, the specific Electronic Health Record (EHR) system that powers these non-payment portal features is not explicitly mentioned in the search results. Although InstaMed integrates with various EHR systems, including NextGen Healthcare (and a NextGen patient portal offers features similar to those described on the SSGA site [16 from previous turn]), there is no definitive information in the provided search results linking Saratoga Schenectady Gastroenterology Associates, P.C. directly to a particular EHR vendor for all their patient portal functionalities. Saratoga Schenectady Endoscopy Center, which is affiliated with SSGA, does mention using HIPAA-compliant electronic medical record software, but the vendor is not named.
