Sending Encrypted Email
We are now using Microsoft 365 to handle encrypted emails so please see the following video tutorial for updated instructions.
While the tutorial captures the essence of the process, your Outlook toolbar probably looks more like this.
Once you craft a new message, you will need to click on the Options menu, select Encrypt, then choose Encrypt from the Set permissions on this item menu.
On a related note, Provider Communication Forms should no longer be faxed. Please open the form, complete, save and attach it to an email to PCCP@health.mo.gov However, sending encrypted email to that address is slightly different than the method above. Type [encrypted] in the beginning of the subject line. DHSS prefers the state’s secure e-mail system for easier access.
