About AMSConnect

AMS Connect is a HIPAA compliant mobile application for critical and secure text messaging. Enhancing critical messaging workflows AMS Connect also integrates with American Messaging’s suite of critical messaging devices, providing reliable, secure, and redundant messaging.
Key Features:
- Send and receive secure text messages in compliance with HIPAA standards.
- Pager Integration – Messages arrive on your pager, smartphone or both for redundancy and convenience.
- Service Teams – Send a page to a service team or group. Adds backup and redundancy to the traditional “hand-off” or “pass around” pager with easy opt-in and opt-out of on-call pagers at any time.
- Silent/Do Not Disturb Override – AMS Connect notifications can override “Silent” and “Do Not Disturb” phone settings when Critical Alerts are “Allowed” by the end-user.
- Message Forwarding – Let your colleagues know who is covering you when off-duty and have your messages automatically forwarded to that person.
- Availability Status – Set your status to let contacts know if you are available, bust or off duty and view the status of others.
- Mobile & Web Accessibility – Access AMS Connect anytime, anywhere with device sync.
- Read Receipts – See exactly if, and when your colleagues have read your messages with receipts.
- Quick Messages - Quickly send commonly used messages by selecting from a list of pre-populated phrases or create your own.
- Voice Notes – Record a voice message and send it securely within a conversation thread.
- Photo & File Share – Safely send up to 5 photo and file attachments including PDF, Word, and Excel documents up to 28MB at a time.
- Archived Messaging History – Ability to archive single, multiple or all messages (according to your organization’s retention policy).
- Searchable Directory – Access a listing of professionals from your organization and message them directly.
- Urgent Message – Alert your care team to critical information and events by sending an urgent message with a unique tone.
- Critical Group Messaging – Privately and securely message individuals, teams, and other distribution groups.
- Secure External Messaging – (enhanced feature) Send a HIPAA secure message or photo to anyone with a mobile phone. Secure external messages are encrypted conversations between an American Messaging user and an external user with a mobile device. No need to sign up and remember usernames and passwords. Just quick, easy secure communication.
