Multifactor Authentication

imaServeWeb supports multifactor authentication using Two Factor Authentication. Each practice can configure any user to have Two factor authentication enabled at login. This is a user level permission.

Typically, a practice limits login for users to a defined range of IP addresses that are inside their network/firewall. When a user is granted permission to access imaServeWeb from outside this defined IP address range, Two Factor Authentication can be enabled within that user’s profile.

imaServe Desktop (windows/linux) does not support multifactor authentication as it is server based. The server resides within the network of the practice of system users.

Electronic Health Information Export

imaServe allows for the export of electronic health information for a single patient at any time on demand. The extract is created in a timely fashion. It contains the information described in 170.315(b)(10)(i)(A) in a machine readable PDF. Access to this feature is role based and managed by System administrators.

Since imaServe is a behavioral health software solution, the data included will be of that limited subset of health information as required.

A population extract can be obtained in the same format upon request. The resulting file would be a .zip file of all of the patient PDFs. IMA would schedule this extract to run in the background and attended by a developer.
