In case of disaster Paper documents stored in file cabinets are susceptible to fire and flood. You cannot recover a paper document that has been destroyed by a fire or a flood. But the problem goes beyond your paper files. Electronic documents stored on workstations and servers across your operation are equally vulnerable to catastrophic loss. In the event of a disaster the goal is to be able to quickly procure a temporary office install computer systems and restore all required documents and information that enables a business to function. The biggest differentiator between a backup plan and a disaster recovery plan is maintaining a copy of your critical documents in an off site location. What is the process of medical scanning The process for scanning patient and medical charts is well-established at Access Scanning Solutions. Staff will prepare your paper copies for digitization by fixing any imperfections such as rips or ragged edges. This guarantees that the documents are preserved in their most pristine form. Then the patient medical records are scanned and are converted to digital files. Finally the digital files are saved in our database or on the clients chosen server for easy and safe access. Through this conversion of medical charts and patient records a seamless transition to EMR is ensured. To help with the transition to a paperless office the old paper chart is integrated with the new e-chart and for each patient s medical record an e-folder is now created which is organized in the same way as the traditional paper chart. This makes it easy for staff to acclimate to the electronic images and makes the conversion hassle-free. What is a e-chart The scanning of the paper medical charts allows for the integration of the old paper chart with the new e-chart and makes for a seamless transition for your medical practice. It also allows the client to realize their original intention of freeing up physical space and time. We organize the paper turned e-chart so that the e-chart structure remains the same as you are familiar with. An e-folder is created for each patient and when you click on that folder all the sections that are found in the traditional paper chart are organized in the same sequence in the new e-chart.
