Medical practices continue to fight a constant battle against paper. Despite the emergence of Electronic Medical Records (EMR) solutions, the amount of paper in modern practices continues to present a problem. That’s because information is coming from a variety of sources, which are not limited to patient records alone. Explanations of Benefits (EOBs) arrive from the insurance companies, referrals are received from other doctors and the tide of requests for immunizations rises at the start of each new school year. You cannot eliminate the flow of paper but you can manage it in a much better way.
SmartSearch provides practices with a secure means to eliminate paper-based filing as you manage your patient records with far greater efficiency. Scanned or Imported records are stored in a powerful Microsoft SQL Server database allowing your staff to recall records based on a variety of search methods, including Patient Name, Patient ID, Medical Record Number, or Date of Service just to name a few. As with all SmartSearch databases, users can easily customize the Healthcare database to their individual needs.
Once records are retrieved they can be annotated or redacted prior to being distributed through your choice of email, fax, print or CD export. To assist you with HIPA compliance, your documents are protected from permanent change and an audit trail of all document related activity is maintained.
