With hospitals and other medical facilities striving to improve quality control by converting their patient’s paper medical files to strictly electronic recordkeeping, it’s no surprise that many healthcare professionals find the task to be quite daunting. Below are a few tips from people in healthcare who have made the process easy and stress-free by using ScanSnap in their offices.

“I am a Primary Care Physician for over 5,000 patients.  With the current healthcare system in the United States, I was bombarded with labs, faxes, hospital records, prescriptions, and insurance billing records for each patient that I care for.  You can certainly image the sheer amount of information and records to upkeep.  I purchased a Fujitsu ScanSnap approximately one year ago after doing some research.  To my surprise, I was able to utilize the enclosed software, ScanSnap Organizer, to manage all my patient’s secure information in a searchable format.  Armed with that technology and power, I am now able to keep all patient records, contacts, labs, faxes, insurance reimbursement and rejections for quick access.  This not only saves me time and money, but also helps me provide better care for my patients.  I can spend the valuable time that I saved in caring for patients or their family.  I have since purchased two more units for my business office and front desk.  Thank you, Fujitsu, for making my life easier.” – Hansen Chang, Georgia

“We are a national Health IT company and we installed ScanSnap scanners all across the company.  The ScanSnap line is an integral part of our Electronic Medical Records-ready Network deployments.  Every office we install them in actually raves about the speed and ease of use.  Happy office staff means happy doctors and they love the ScanSnap from Portland, Oregon to Birmingham, Alabama.” – Wes Strickling, Ohio

“As an eye doctor, I have to deal with tons of paper. Even though we use electronic medical records, there are insurance cards, test results, reports of older exams from other offices, follow up reports from my referrals – it just never seems to end. So, I created multiples folders A through Z and every time there is a report for a patient or an insurance card, I scan and load it into the computer. This keeps things organized (mostly!). I also have my staff scan all the receipts for office purchases – this helps to keep my finances under check too. I still have over 300 photos at home that my wife wants scanned and stored – I’ll get to it when I find time. I am amazed by the speed and quality of this tiny scanner! I am very happy with its performance.” – Keshav Bhat, North Carolina
