GAIN INSIGHTS: Navigating your Way to the Smarter Form of Healthcare
Case in Point
When Southeastern Regional Medical Center (SRMC) decided to transition to electronic medical records employing McKesson's Horizon Patient Folder, it turned to Standard Register. Conducting a comprehensive audit of SRMC's documents and processes, we developed a blueprint for automating patient and clinical documentation and introducing new efficiencies -- everywhere from Admissions to Billing. Read about their remarkable results.
Healthcare CIOs agree: a successful EMR implementation must be built on a foundation of sound document practices and processes. Those who have neglected the prerequisites of document management have had to retrace steps and incur additional costs. Standard Register provides the foundational support and ongoing technology services to support EMR.
The Essential Foundation
SR’s healthcare professionals assist you in laying that foundation. Prior to implementing an EMR, it is important to understand what documents are being used throughout the hospital and other facilities in your delivery network. We begin with a full audit of your document processes and then work with you to organize, standardize and consolidate documents. The goal is to minimize redundancy and prepare them for a digital state. We provide the technology tools to effectively manage documents and maintain version control. We give you the means to integrate bar codes and pictures, and electronically capture signatures, so all of you documents are ready to be transitioned into EMR.
On-Going EMR Support
During and after the implementation of your EMR system, it is critical that information can be imported quickly and efficiently. We’ll assist you in document conversion as you phase in various departments. Even after your EMR implementation, there will be paper documents that will need to be sent to the EMR. We’ll give you the means to manage documents in this hybrid environment, facilitating version control of both electronic and paper documents and assuring paper forms are properly prepared with multiple bar codes to indicate both patient and the document. So you can eliminate manual indexing – its costs and the delays that slow billings and reimbursements.
Downtime Applications
We’ll also support you with downtime applications to enable you to create the necessary clinical documentation when the network and/or HIS are down. Be it a planned maintenance or system update, or a full-blown disaster that takes everything down, we’ll see that your people and processes are ready to easily shift to “Plan B” without hesitation.
