MPAA Releases A Revolutionary Addition To Their Document Management Solutions
United States, April 15, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Medical practices across the country can finally take advantage of the latest addition to Medical Practice Automation Associates’ portfolio of document management solutions. The company is proud to announce that after over a year of constant development and updating, their Day Forward Scanning Service is officially available today.
This latest release from the MPAA Group is expected to revolutionize the way healthcare organizations and solo practices scan and index paper-based documents into their EMR systems. Among the new service’s prime features are a streamlined workflow and an exclusive scanning and indexing software.
The Unique Workflow in Detail
In a usual setting, a medical practice would receive piles of medical documents daily via fax. Using other document management solutions, those faxed documents would be printed, scanned, and then indexed manually.
MPAA Group experts found a way to cut through this process by eliminating the printing of documents and storing the records directly to an EMR system instead. This workflow is intended to reduce the time it takes for health informatics staff to convert a paper-based record into a standardized and indexed EMR record. Traditionally, document conversion takes 47 seconds per record but with MPAA’s exclusive scanning software, it is expected to only take 26 seconds per record.
Software Behind
The service comes with a Day Forward Scanning software that handles the direct scanning and indexing of faxed documents. Initially, the software will be configured with a practice’s office fax. An indexing convention that is based on a practice’s current EMR system will also be stored into the software. This way, indexing can be done manually. This is also how the MPAA Group ensures that the software is highly compatible with any EMR system. After configuration, the software is ready to fetch every document that comes in and then store it into the EMR system using the predefined settings.
The Day Forward Scanning software can be used as a standalone software or in combination with other document management solutions that are being offered by the MPAA Group. For instance, a medical practice may opt to employ an MPAA Virtual Scribe to index the documents instead of having its own medical staff do the indexing.
More in Store
Using Day Forward Scanning not only shortens the process of document conversion and lower the costs related to the process. A 50 percent decrease in labor cost can also be expected out of the service. It also eliminates the use of toner and paper giving the service an extra edge over other document management solutions offered by other providers.
The software included in the service has also been designed to have an intuitive and easy-to-use interface. It is also Internet-based and storage space is unlimited. Practice-specific security measures are also embedded in the software. Hence, medical practices can be assured that their patients’ records remain secured and confidential.
