The iPlato toolbar is a desktop application published by iPlato Healthcare that delivers secure two-way communication between clinicians and patients, integrated directly with the EMIS Web and SystmOne clinical systems. Classified within the healthcare communication and clinical systems integration category, the software is designed to support primary care environments where reliable, secure interaction with patients is a routine operational requirement. The current version is 3.8.2725.0, and only a single version of the product is recorded. By connecting with widely used clinical systems, the toolbar enables direct patient messaging from within the clinician's existing workflow, reducing the need to switch between separate platforms. Its feature set includes automated QOF coding, which assists practices in recording quality and outcomes framework data, as well as template customisation that allows messaging to be adapted to the needs of individual practices. Additional capabilities include file sharing, enabling documents to be exchanged securely, and video consultations, which support remote appointments between clinicians and patients. The application also offers multi-practice support, making it suitable for organisations or clinicians that operate across more than one practice site. The iPlato toolbar works alongside complementary iPlato services, including Selfbook, Patient Questionnaires and Triage, forming part of a broader digital toolkit for patient engagement. Selfbook supports patient appointment booking, Patient Questionnaires facilitate the structured collection of information from patients, and Triage assists in directing patient enquiries appropriately. Together, these functions position the iPlato toolbar as an integrated communication solution for clinical settings, combining messaging, consultation, documentation and administrative support within a single desktop application that operates in conjunction with established electronic health record systems.
