MPage Reach Community Faculty Access to Patient Records @ UNM
UNM Health Provider Portal (MPage Reach) is a web-based application that provides real-time access to patient records from within our health system to our external community partners. Here are some of the improvements: · Global access - external providers now have the ability to search for any patient within the UNM Health electronic medical record. They can access patient records for whom they may not have been identified as a referring provider during registration and for patients we have referred to them. · New streamlined online account application process.

Medical Student Short-Term Housing Database
UNM Medical students spend many weeks as visitors in New Mexico towns and cities while working with community educators in local clinical settings. It is often difficult for these students to find affordable housing for their temporary stay. If you know of housing opportunities in your area, whether it be short-term rentals, willing host-homes, affordable complexes, or any other safe and suitable room, please add any information you have about the temporary, affordable, and suitable housing to this sheet. We appreciate your help in creating a database of housing options across the state of New Mexico.
NM DVR Consultant Opportunity
DDS manages the Social Security Disability Program, where all medical decisions are made for those who file for Social Security Disability Benefits in the State of New Mexico. DDS continues to have a need for additional physicians to perform administrative medical reviews. This is a great opportunity for physicians who may be looking for other ways to earn income, those who have retired and/or are about to retire and want to continue work in the medical field.
