Once patient information is scanned and linked in Perceptive Software's ECM solution, our billing office, coders and other authorized personnel have immediate, electronic access to that information instead of having to await the arrival of paper documents.

Medical Records

Cut Costs and Improve Information Availability

Manually managing medical records inhibits productivity, jeopardizes regulatory compliance, slows retrieval of patient information and incurs high storage costs. Locating and retrieving historical paper medical records takes time.

Developed using ImageNow document management, imaging, workflow and our other ECM technology, the Perceptive Software solution for scanning and retrieving medical records helps hospitals alleviate those costs and save time. Hospital staff can efficiently administer patient charts, which enables organizations to eliminate paperwork.

Hospitals can apply a bar code to the first page of a patient’s paper chart. Upon scanning, our solution uses the bar code to tie the chart to the HIS record, without the hassle and errors of manual indexing. From anywhere in the organization, authorized staff can access the chart instantly from that record, speeding future care, release of information and other processes. Using the solution, your hospital can:

  • Improve availability of patient information to authorized clinical and administrative staff
  • Reduce storage costs and free up floor space
  • Safeguard confidential patient charts in a secure electronic repository
  • Share information with physicians, clinical and administrative staff without delays
  • Elevate productivity by minimizing tasks such as manual indexing and chart retrieval
