Scan insurance cards, EOBs, medical images and charts.

MDoffice's document management uses scanners to convert paper documents into digital image files that you can electronically store, display, or transmit. You can scan paper documents directly into a patient's online medical chart, making it simple and fast to organize and retrieve clinical information.

Scanning allows you to combine images of letters, charts, x-rays, lab results and other patient information into one instantly available electronic chart. You and your staff can easily find, fax, email and print images and documents. You can review lab results or an x-ray image, anytime, anywhere.

Document scanning lets you place all loose paper accompanying a chart into the patient's electronic medical record for a fully descriptive patient history. Any physician with authorized access to patient records can find and view all images stored in the system.

Whether it’s handwritten physician notes and drawings or outside documents such as interpretations, lab results, consults, or x-ray reports, it’s easy to scan them directly into the patient’s chart. You zoom in and out of an image for detail, and you can add your own annotation and highlighted notes on top of an image.

When an images are created, document-scanning puts them in folders created specifically for lab results, EKGs, x-rays, insurance forms, and so on. MDoffice indexes chart entries by date of service, provider, location, and chart information. You can also define your own content-based categories such as Medications, Past Medical History, Chief Complaints or Surgical Procedures.

Because certain paper documents will continue to be a part of everyday life, digital documentation extends the reach of the medical record. Document scanning is a natural extension to practice management, and the first step to a paperless office.

The first step towards Electronic Medical Record (EMR).

Many MDoffice physicians take their first step towards electronic records with imaging technology, allowing them to be operating more quickly than trying to address the entire EMR. For example, you might want to monitor the healing of a wound. In addition to your written notes, you can track graphically the healing by having pictures taken during the stages of healing.

Since most health information is still on paper, the electronic records system is still evolving. However, you can implement imaging technology quickly, delivering the greatest impact and preparing you for the eventual total EMR solution. Start now and create a fully descriptive patient history by attaching electronically captured images of x-rays, charts, consultations, lab results, photographs and other documents.
