Research Analysis
Methodology & Findings

The Center for Discovery (thecenterfordiscovery.org) utilizes a patient portal powered by KIPU Health's customer relationship management (CRM) platform. This portal allows patients to sign forms, view medications and appointments, and review documents. It is worth noting that the Discovery Health Center, which is part of The Center for Discovery, uses a patient portal called HEALOW, provided by eClinicalWorks. However, the KIPU portal appears to be the primary patient portal associated with the main thecenterfordiscovery.org website.
