Send Message to Patient in the Portal Even If Patient Has Not YET Registered for PHR

Send Message to Patient in the Portal Even If Patient Has Not YET Registered for PHR

It is critical that we are allowed to send a message to a patient who may not have signed into PHR yet. The system would send them a message that a Message from our office was sent to them and that they should sign in. This would be in addition to any invites sent out. It would do two things:

1) Increase the number of patients who use the PHR since they would be interested in seeing the message, 
2) Provide us the paper trail that we did send a message but the patient CHOSE not to sign in to see it. 

Currently, there is nothing that entices a new patient to sign in/register other than if we send them invite after invite and become a pest about this. This is reasonable on many fronts and should be enabled quickly.
