Howdy,
My solo practice is about to enter the abyss and we are seeking input on scanning paper charts into AC (we have an in house server and high speed scanner) and then how to truly go paperless in the most efficient manner (we need advice on how to create interfaces, etc. and are curious what has worked best for those who have already made the journey.)
After reading the forum topics, it appears there is less trouble opening imported items if they are saved in pdf format- True or False? Other options? The issue here has to do with staying efficient by not having to open/close AC while accessing imported data.
After we have a chart scanned, demographics and insurance info setup...how can we minimize the amount of scanning we will have to do with items that will be received into the practice from outside entities-labs, home health, nursing homes, pharmacies, etc... We know that setting up interfaces with the labs is a key first step. What other suggestions regarding this complex process would you recommend?
All input is greatly appreciated!
