HealthcareAccessibility4HighPatient

A visually impaired patient cannot access care team communication or medication refills through the athenahealth patient portal because printing is too small and navigation is not accessible.

The existing patient portal lacks adequate accessibility features for visually impaired users, making it impossible to contact providers, ask questions, or refill medications.
