Intuit combines Medfusion, Quicken Health Group

Intuit has transformed its healthcare business by combining newly acquired Medfusion with its Quicken Health Group to create a new business unit called Intuit Health. Based in Cary, N.C., the group provides online connected services to healthcare settings.

Intuit Health’s patient-to-provider communication technologies give patients electronic access to their health information, the company said. The online patient portal currently handles more than 93,000 daily transactions, connecting 32,000 providers and 2.5 million patients.

According to the company, the portal assists office efficiency by allowing patients to go online to request appointments, pay bills, request prescription refills, complete medical forms, receive lab results and clinical summaries, conduct virtual office visits and exchange messages for related care and administrative issues.

As one entity, Intuit Health stated it will combine expertise and assets to improve the healthcare landscape and help providers and their patients.
