How can Enterprise Content Management solutions help your healthcare workflow?
PaperFree brings over ten years of healthcare business process automation experience to assist organizations in digitizing their information and creating effective, accurate, and cost-efficient solutions to manage their information management needs.
All healthcare companies are responsible for a lot of information - patient data, orders, test results, prescription information, claims, and a variety of practice-specific data. Managing this burden of data is an ongoing struggle and a struggle that is made even more difficult with recent legislation requiring digital records, HIPAA compliance, and other regulatory requirements. At the forefront of all of this is the need to provide excellent customer care while being mindful of the costs and competition to do so.
PaperFree offers a suite of powerful content management solutions designed to handle these paper burdens; smart capture products to scan and digitize information, repositories to process and store data, as well as add-on solutions to expand the capabilities of these systems.
How does it work?
The process of enterprise content management for healthcare enterprises is relatively simple in concept. Paper-based information (such as reports, patient data, and more) is collected at the first point of contact and scanned into the system. There, industry-leading capture solutions ingest and interpret the data against established rules and templates, quickly returning accurately digitized data that can be exported to a processing workflow. Those workflows, customized for your individual enterprise, can handle any of a number of tasks automatically; payments, add documents to case files, or even update vendor profiles. In many cases they also link documents together, so all information relating to a patient file or a payment transaction are available together, without the need to search through endless folders. Operators are only required to step in when there's a workflow exception or a step is designed to require approval, which significantly speeds up the process from paper document to usable data. Once those workflows are complete, the data is stored for easy later lookup by those with configured permissions to do so.
Though enterprise content management is simple in concept, it's much more complicated in execution. That's why a trusted, experienced partner like PaperFree is your guide for how to maximize the functionality and economies of your content management system.
