Digital patient portals are truly powerful when all important information and services are available in one place. In practice, however, there are often additional web applications, specialized information, or forms that are located outside the portal. Users have to switch between different pages—which is cumbersome and disrupts the digital process.
With the iFrame Generator module, you can embed such external content directly into the patient portal—flexibly, securely, and without any programming effort.
What the iFrame Generator Does
The iFrame Generator allows administrators to independently integrate external web applications, information pages, or tools into the portal interface. An intuitive configuration panel is used to specify which content is to be integrated, how it is to be displayed, and which patient groups should be able to view it.
Integration occurs exclusively via validated HTTPS URLs, ensuring compliance with modern security and data protection requirements.
How the iFrame Generator Works
Select Source
Administrators select the external website or web application to be displayed in the patient portal (e.g., hospital information, visiting policies, meal plans, forms, external tools).Configure iFrame
In the configuration panel, you can specify the URL, title, position within the portal, visibility (e.g., for specific organizational units or patient groups), and display options.Publish content
After saving, the embedded content is immediately available in the portal—without any additional development. Changes can be made at any time.Control usage
Multiple iFrames can be set up per tenant and can be customized or deactivated as needed without having to adjust any background processes.
Benefits for Patients
All Information in One Place
Patients can find meal plans, visiting policies, forms, additional services, and further information directly in the patient portal—without having to navigate to other websites.Consistent User Experience
External content is seamlessly embedded into the portal interface. Users feel as though they are staying within a single application and don’t lose track of where they are.Up-to-date information
Changes to external sites are automatically reflected in the embedded section—ensuring that notices and content are always up to date.
Benefits for Clinics and Professionals
High Flexibility Without an IT Project
Administrators can operate the iFrame Generator themselves. External content can be added or customized in just a few steps—without programming and without having to wait for IT resources.Centralized Information Management
Important content is displayed where patients expect to find it: in the portal. At the same time, the organization retains full control over which information is visible and to whom.Secure Integration
Integration via HTTPS URLs and clearly defined tenant logic ensures that the iFrame Generator fits seamlessly into existing security and data protection frameworks.Scalability
Whether it’s a single department or an entire hospital network—the iFrame Generator scales with your needs and supports multiple iFrames per tenant.
With the iFrame Generator module, you can turn your patient portal into a true central platform: External content is integrated seamlessly, securely, and with no extra effort—for a consistent, modern user experience.
