The certification covers Phreesia’s purpose-built intake modalities, the PhreesiaPad, Mobile and the Arrivals station, as well as the Phreesia Dashboard. The designation also confirms that Phreesia’s platform meets key healthcare regulations and requirements for protecting and securing sensitive private healthcare information.
