Frequently Asked Questions
You will need to contact Wiseman Support at support@wisemani.com to request access for 360 TeleWise. Once we configure your access to 360 TeleWise, you can use your existing 360 user accounts, or we can provide you with new accounts if you do not have existing accounts with us.
Yes. 360 TeleWise has recently added Virtual Office utility that allows the patients to send appointment requests and general inquiry messages to their PCPs via public URL configured by you.
You and your authorized practice staff receive these appointment requests from patients and may schedule them accordingly. Similarly, you can also respond to the patients’ messages that are communicated back to them via email and SMS.
Yes. 360 TeleWise provides a comprehensive solution to add and monitor patient vitals. You and your authorized practice staff may define which vitals need to be monitored for a patient along with their acceptable measures range and repeating frequency. Based on the patient measures, 360 TeleWise automatically highlights which vitals have been missed and which went out of bound.
Furthermore, 360 TeleWise allows integration with the 360 RPM Withings server that enables 360 TeleWise to auto fetch the patient vitals data from the 360 RPM Withings server.
Yes, for all patients to whom you want to provide remote care using 360 TeleWise services, you will need to schedule them from 360 TeleWise portal. You or your authorized practice staff can schedule the appointments on your behalf. Your scheduled appointments in the EMR will not currently be synced with 360 TeleWise platform, but, this is a feature we may release in the future.
Our 360 TeleWise solution provides a virtual waiting room which works exactly like a physical waiting room in a practice.
The scheduled patient checks in by clicking on the link provided through a PC/Laptop/Smartphone/Tablet. The practice scheduler or Medical Assistant will move the checked in patient on a first come first serve basis to the waiting room.
The scheduler then initiates the call to connect the provider to the patient and the provider receives a ringing alert on his/her desktop. Once the call is accepted, the audio-video console opens within 360 Ribbon or 360 TeleWise Provider Portal, depending on where the Provider is logged-in and the patient is checked out from the virtual room.
As 360 Ribbon is mostly used by Physicians, we have integrated our 360 TeleWise portal with 360 Ribbon. With this integration, the Physician may either directly get a call alert on 360 Ribbon, initiated by their Practice Staff from 360 TeleWise portal, or they can themself start the call from 360 Ribbon Practice Dashboard with the checked-in patients.
As the patients may also check-in themselves by following the appointment invitation link, this enables the Physicians to consider working without additional practice staff for the patient check-in activities.
Yes, you will need to use 360 TeleWise portal for registering, scheduling and initiating the telehealth call. The audio-video console will open in 360 Ribbon or in 360 TeleWise portal. If you are using 360 Ribbon and are logged in, you will receive a call alert on your 360 Ribbon, when your Practice Staff starts the call from 360 TeleWise portal, but if you are logged in to 360 TeleWise portal, you will be connected with the patient via the 360 TeleWise portal.
Your patients can connect via 360 TeleWise patient web portal using a PC/Laptop or 360 PatientTouch mobile application using a smartphone or tablet.
In either case we will send the patient a URL or an OTP (One Time Password) for the respective methods via Email / SMS, which they can easily use to connect with you.
Yes, you can provide telehealth services to all your patients which include Fee for Value and Fee for Service (FFS) patients using our 360 TeleWise portal by scheduling their appointments.
In the future releases, we will allow new patients to automatically schedule Telehealth appointments directly by providing their information. The insurance information will have to be verified manually by the practice.
Yes. Patient Chart in 360 TeleWise is a quick display of patient details that includes their personal information, previous and upcoming appointments with their PCPs, calls history and their vitals information, i.e. if they are missed or out of bound. You and your authorized practice staff can also schedule the patient appointment by clicking the date on the calendar.

360 RPM – Withings is a remote patient monitoring service that auto fetches a patient’s vital data from their configured electronic devices and stores them on the server. If you are using this service, then you should have monitoring gadgets at home that are capable of measuring and auto sending your vitals information (i.e. BP, diabetes, temperature, etc.) to the 360-RPM Withings server.
To avoid the manual entry of the same data, 360 TeleWise can reuse your vitals information directly from the 360 RPM – Withings server. For this, 360 TeleWise needs your exclusive permission to sync your vitals data from the 360 RPM – Withings server. Please note, the system cannot access your information till you give your consent.
When a PCP/ scheduler initiates a consent request for your RPM services, a notification email and SMS is sent to you. The notification email contains the link to connect with the 360 RPM – Withings server.
For this:
- Open the consent notification email from your inbox, and click the Enable Services button from there.
- You will be directed to the 360 RPM – Withings screen. Login with your Withings credentials.
- Click the Allow this App button.
Your vitals data will start syncing in your Patient Chart of 360 TeleWise.
