Send a Letter via Secure Messaging

Bp Allied allows you to send messages to other health professionals using Argus or ReferralNet, if you have:

  • Installed and configured the third-party application on your practice network
  • Set up Options in Bp Allied for your secure messaging provider: ReferralNet or Argus.

All Clients must have a Practitioner selected in Client Details > Contact Details > Practitioner so that the message can be directed to the Recipient via the correct Practitioner account.

  1. Create a letter or report for the Client in the Letter Editor.
  2. Click Send Securely.

  3. Select the Recipient.
    • Bp Allied checks that the recipient is listed in the Referrers listing, along with the recipient's securing messaging account (in this example Argus).
    • The letter is encrypted and then passed along with the Recipient and Sender details to the secure messaging system.
  4. Click Send to Selected.

  5. A confirmation message is displayed.

    • The secure messaging agent is responsible for communicating with the secure messaging servers and passing the letter on.
    • Bp Allied returns a successfully passed to Secure Messaging response when an acknowledgement is received from the secure messaging system on the user's computer.
    • Bp Allied will return an error if the Sender or Recipient details are not correct.

  6. The user is asked if they want to save a copy to the Client's record or to their computer.
