EMR Conversions
Healthcare providers are expected to adopt and demonstrate a meaningful and secure use of EMR (electronic medical records) procedures. A medical record is the most important tool used by physicians regardless of specialty, because it supports, records, and enhances the medical care that patients receive. As a legal document, electronic health records detail the care provided to patients and act as a record of billing practices. Improve the quality, safety and privacy of medical records with secure electronic medical records (EMR) conversion.
Why do so many doctors, clinics and hospitals choose our “paperless” electronic medical records conversion (EMR) solutions? We take the pain out of scanning patient records and inactive patient records. While EMR and CMS software have benefits, they do not overcome the major hurdles most physicians face in converting data. Often a practice will run two systems consisting of both an electronic medical records conversion and paper document management system.
Specifically, Electronic Medical Records Conversion (EMR) and CMS do not:
- Meet the minimum requirement to keep all patient medical records
- Help maintain a dual file system of paper and digital
We know the business of managing medical records and work with physicians every day that must manage thousands of paper patient records. The bottom line benefit to our client physicians is EMR conversions and patient records scanning often costs less than the monthly fees associated with storing the medical files.
Rapid Service
We can scan all or a just a portion of inactive patient records: our solution turns a task that would take months or years into an invisible service. On average our clients access their electronic records available in a matter of weeks or even days. Learn more about DOCUdavit’s EMR conversions services.
Cost Savings With EMR Conversion
