Medical Practices looking to take the leap toward Electronic Medical Record Systems are being provided with an easier, more cost effective on-ramp to digitizing their Patient Charts. Shoreline Records Management, Long Island’s leading Document Scanning and Records Management Firm, has announced a program that provides Free Online Document Storage and Hosting for Medical Practices, Hospitals, and Clinics that are looking to reduce the amount of paper around their offices.
“We believe that Medical Practices need improved access to Patient Information, and we want to help practices take action toward the Paperless Office.” Said Thomas G. Doyle, President of Shoreline Records Management. “There are still a lot of mixed signals and confusion around selecting the right EMR, or Electronic Medical Record System, for these practices, but we believe that with our online document hosting and outsourced Medical Record Scanning Services we can start to help deliver immediate results for Hospitals, Clinics, and Group Practices of all Sizes.”
Shoreline’s Medical Record Scanning Services allow Healthcare organizations to outsource the conversion of paper charts to digital images, saving Practices both time and money. Once converted, Images are indexed by Patient ID Number, First Name, Last Name, and any other keywords that will enable retrieval when charts are needed. These scanned images are both portable and universally accessible, meaning that not only will they be viewable outside of an Electronic Medical Record System, but firms will be able to import their scanned charts as they migrate toward an EMR.
In addition to the outsourced Scanning, Shoreline’s new offering of Free Online Document Hosting for Medical Groups who use their Medical Record Scanning services helps to bridge the gap between the paper chart and the EMR. “The online hosting solution really is a no-risk proposition for practices that aren’t sure what direction to take yet. They can improve access to Patient Charts and reduce their operating costs without any investment Software. Even more importantly, the images that they create can be migrated to whatever EMR system they may choose to implement.” Said Doyle. “This is a great way for practices to take one step closer to the Paperless Medical Office.”
