Zedmed Cloud does not support Zedmed's HealthLink SmartForms integration, which populates the SmartForms with patient information and files. This limitation is because Zedmed Cloud runs in a secure environment that does not allow the type of connection required to support this Zedmed integration.
Zedmed Cloud users need to use the HealthLink portal.
Healthlink SmartForms portal
Healthlink has a SmartForms portal for its customers to submit patient assessments including eReferrals, Return to Work Certificates and Fitness to Drive Assessments.
If you want to use SmartForms now, you can access them using the My HealthLink Portal.
To register for the HealthLink client or a portal account, go to https://au.healthlink.net/au_registration/ and complete the Service Application form. It's important to review the options and tick boxes are they will determine who you can send your referrals to.
