Kyocera document management solutions reduce costs and make work easier in everyday clinical practice

Everyday hospital life presents numerous challenges: Tight budgets force cost-cutting measures that must not burden patients and hospital staff. Archiving and documentation obligations create a lot of work, which can often only be completed laboriously and manually after hours. Last but not least, confidential patient information must be protected from unauthorized access in hectic hospital operations. This is where intelligent document management solutions from Kyocera come in. From admission to treatment to billing: the correct recording and fast processing of patient data forms the basis for all other activities in the hospital environment that are directly or indirectly connected with the treatment of a patient.

The electronic patient file (ePA)

Diagnoses, diagnostic data, treatment histories, referral papers, living wills or documents relating to billing: In most hospitals, all these documents are only available in paper form. Digitizing these documents has several advantages.

This means that all patient-relevant information is not only available across all wards. The individual courses of treatment are also traceable and duplicate diagnostics are avoided.

But how do all these paper documents get into the electronic patient file? The patient is assigned a barcode on admission. This is then scanned into a Kyocera multifunctional system at the same time as the corresponding treatment or billing documents.

The image and text data is then captured using a scan-and-capture solution and processed together with the information on the ID card or stored in the patient's personal ePA file. The scanned documents are then available across all wards in the hospital information system.
