Here you’ll add the providers practices patients will see. Practices include doctors specialists, hospice, therapists, etc.–anyone who will need to interact with a patient on the Blum platform.

To add a provider, click “add new association” in the top right corner.

You have lots of ways to search for a practice.

If you do not see a particular practice on the list, they most likely have not joined Blum yet.

Now under associations, select families to add patient family members who need to receive email updates join in on an e-visit.

Click add new family.

You can search to see if your patient’s family is on Blum.

If they are, send them a request to associate with you.

Your E-visit

Schedule a visit from your dashboard.

Select your patient, the facilitator who will assist with the e-visit, and the practice you will be meeting with.

Then, select a doctor or provider.

Choose date and local time.

If your provider is in another time zone, Blum will automatically adjust.

You can add someone else to the visit.

Select Provider or Family Member.

On your dashboard, you’ll see the e-visits you’ve requested for today.

Status is requested until provider accepts, rejects or reschedules.

At the appointment time, you’ll join and go into a virtual private HIPAA-compliant waiting room.
