General

Do you offer training for my team?

The system has been designed to be intuitive, eliminating the need for training, however we will provide an onboarding manual. In addition, your personal account manager and our customer support team are always available should you or your team need extra help.

Do I need to invest in new equipment or install new software? 

No, the entire service is web-based. You don't need to install anything on your computer nor invest in expensive software. 

How long does the onboarding process take?

From receipt of the signed contracts and patient lists, we can have you onboarded and ready to go in as little as 1 working day. 

In which languages is Certific’s platform available?

Currently, Certific can be used in English, Spanish and Estonian, however this may change in the future based on demand.

What if my clinic expands or my patient base grows?

Our platform is highly scalable, designed to grow with your clinic. Whether you add more providers, expand your clinic, or see an increase in patients, our solution can easily accommodate the growth.

Is your software development incentivized by Meaningful Use?

Our product is not incentivized by Meaningful Use and it’s not eligible for incentives. The product wasn’t built to help receive government funding, but to help clinics to care for their patients and offer an excellent clinician experience.

Is there a minimum contract period?

No. You can cancel the service at any time with no prior warning. We will offboard your clinic and delete the required data.

Doctor-patient communication

Can all patients use Certific’s platform?

The platform is customizable to your clinic's needs: you can choose to receive messages from only enrolled patients or from both enrolled and non-enrolled patients.

What can I do to encourage patients to use the platform?

As part of our services, Certific will assist you in creating and implementing referral messaging for your website, information pages, and automated voicemail systems.

How do patients see GP responses?

The patient will receive an email notification if the doctor responds or closes his or her appeal. Due to security reasons, the answer is not included in the email, so the patient must log in again to view the answer.

Technical

Yes, you can continue using your own familiar booking and billing solutions with our platform. We can also integrate with other preferred software based on your specific needs, ensuring a seamless experience.

How do you keep my patient’s sensitive information safe?

Our platform is built with modern cybersecurity methods to ensure your patient’s data is protected. The solution follows HIPAA guidelines and we will sign a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) if needed.
