Busy healthcare professionals now have a better way to access the latest clinical information at important decision points. WebMD Provider Services is now offering an additional clinical support tool – Read by QxMD – as part of our broader clinical support solution, which is built on Krames’ integrated patient education. This latest addition to our clinical support solution provides clinicians the necessary information for themselves and patients to achieve the best outcomes possible.
Expanding on our commitment to enhanced clinical support
This expanded offering underscores our ongoing commitment to supporting clinicians, who play a vital role across consumers’ health journeys. Our clinical support solution will now include access to Read by QxMD – a mobile app that provides the latest key, relevant literature, helping ensure that new knowledge is translated into clinical practice. More than 300 hospitals and universities across the globe use the Read by QxMD Institutional Edition. This complements our existing clinical support solution, which provides health literate content enabling clinicians to help patients – at the point of care – understand their own health journey.

Seamless integration for easy access anywhere
Our clinical support tools make it easy for institutions to provide content through their existing systems. WebMD Provider Services’ Ignite on FHIR technology allows healthcare institutions to integrate award-winning patient education into their existing electronic health record (EHR) system, while Read by QxMD integrates with their medical and scientific journal subscriptions, providing one tap access to the latest new research.
What it means for healthcare institutions
Healthcare institutions using Krames’ integrated patient education can now access Read by QxMD at no additional cost by activating the tool through their account manager. Those interested in adding this comprehensive clinical support package can connect with the WebMD Provider Services team for more information.
“By taking advantage of this complete clinical support solution, healthcare institutions can realize improved value and outcomes by better educating and engaging both healthcare professionals and patients,” said Ann Bilyew, Senior Vice President Health and Group General Manager, WebMD Provider Services. “As the pace of medical research continues to accelerate, giving providers and patients seamless access to relevant, timely information is critical to achieving the best overall healthcare outcomes.”
