Akashic Health Records Patient Portal Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
Your practice. Your health. Better connected.
Akashic connects patients, healthcare staff, and the people helping with care. This plugin brings the Akashic patient portal and staff workspace to your practice’s WordPress website.
Patients use their own Akashic account across participating practices. They can manage appointments, read their records, complete forms, message their practice, and choose family members or caregivers who can help. Staff get access according to their role and the patient’s sharing permissions.
Version 1.0 is the first public MVP release. We are continuing to refine the application and complete additional workflows. Incoming records-request fulfillment and external SMART on FHIR connections are not available in this release.
An Akashic account and an internet connection are required. The plugin connects your website to the hosted Akashic service; it is not a standalone records system. Practices can start with the free plan, including the first clinician seat. Additional clinician seats and optional add-ons may require payment. Patient accounts are free; charges from a practice for healthcare are separate. Visit akashic.health for current features and pricing.
Third-Party Services
This plugin communicates with the hosted Akashic service when you set up a practice, sign in, or use a portal or form. It sends information you submit for the requested action, such as account details, appointment requests, messages, questionnaire answers, health records, and uploaded files. It also sends authentication and request metadata needed to authorize those actions.
-
Akashic API: Akashic uses AWS API Gateway to route authenticated requests to its services. These handle practice setup, appointments, records, messages, and other requested actions.

Production also uses the fhir-*.akashichealthrecords.com APIs and https://terminology.akashichealthrecords.com/fhir. Authentication uses AWS Cognito in the us-east-1 region. File transfers use authorized S3 URLs returned by the service. Akashic’s applicable agreements are presented in the application during account and practice setup; see akashic.health for service information.
