Clear Secure, Hackensack Meridian Health form partnership

The era of juggling clipboards, insurance cards, and identification at hospitals and in doctors’ waiting rooms is going to change for patients at Hackensack Meridian Health. New Jersey’s largest and most comprehensive health network announced a groundbreaking partnership with Clear, the secure identity company, to power a single, interoperable identity designed for faster and more convenient patient experiences across the Hackensack ecosystem. Hackensack plans to leverage Clear’s identity platform, Clear1, via its integration with Epic, to enable MyChart Account Creation and Password Reset. Once live, patients will be able to verify their identity with a quick selfie, bypassing legacy solutions and traditional paperwork. Additionally, this seamless verification process is expected to be available for Patient Check-In on kiosks at select Hackensack locations.
