The deadline for adopting EHRs looms, but here’s the reality: Paper will continue to be part of the system for years to come. And providers of all sizes need to move to fully electronic records without affecting patient care, doctors or business processes.

For many, the problem isn’t the new technology; it’s how to move forward without being weighed down by existing paper records. Providers can’t be expected to consult both a paper and an electronic chart at every patient encounter. Yet scanning reams of paper can be a drain on time and resources that are already scarce and should be focused on patient care.

And unless you have a way to automatically sort, identify and match documents to a patient’s EHR, you’ll be faced with a lot of unnecessary rework and a greater likelihood of error.

Let ABBYY FlexiCapture® solve your paper problemFlexiCapture not only lets you scan patient records, it also extracts the data needed to automatically associate them with the right EHRs. It can “read” the information in a patient record, such as an MRN, date of birth, patient name, etc. Validation rules, automated classification and other features ensure that the scanned charts – and the documents within them – are accurately identified. The result: faster conversion of your paper records with fewer resources.

With FlexiCapture, you can:• Eliminate the inconvenience and potential liability of maintaining duplicate/hybrid records

• Reduce the impact of converting paper charts by practically eliminating manual data entry

• Comply with HITECH deadlines as well as the spirit of the Meaningful Use requirements

• Accommodate the flow of paper documents (e.g., lab reports, referrals, faxes, etc.) that will continue to be a part of patient care

• Spend less time looking for paper and more time helping patients

This powerful solution is easy to use and makes short work of processing everything from intake forms to post-op summaries. Best of all, intelligence within the software learns to recognize different types of documents automatically.
