Document and Image Management
The Days of Chasing Paper Are Over— Put a File-Free Plan into Action
If you’re looking for a document-heavy organization, look no further than the healthcare industry. Patient data is growing at a staggering rate. What used to be housed in a few over-sized file folders has become a vast collection of forms, histories, images, and treatment records that must be kept private and readily available for longer periods of time.
As the healthcare industry moves toward meaningful use of Electronic Health Records (EHR), you have a major challenge on your hands. You need document and image management systems that make it easier to incorporate all of a patient’s data into a single, secure EHR easily accessible across multiple systems and platforms. You’ll require technology to scan paper documents that originate from admissions, printed medical records, and the business office. Perhaps you’ll implement a picture archiving and communication system (PACS) to store, retrieve, present, and distribute digital diagnostics such as ultrasound or magnetic resonance images.
It certainly doesn’t end there. Once you have a working system in place for creating electronic records, you will be faced with your next challenge: how to store these files in compliance with HIPAA, HITECH, and other government privacy and accessibility mandates. Document and image management systems require the support of a scalable storage infrastructure, imaging workstations, a secure network, and indexing, archiving, and retrieval methodologies.
Making the shift from documents to digital records can be a daunting task. The good news is HealthConnection provides all of the tools, expertise, and services you need to ensure that no record is left behind—whether these are documents that need to be digitized or images that need to be stored in a secure and retrievable environment.
