ARDEM Cuts cost of Medical Record Scanning

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) December 23, 2007 -- Despite strides in electronic medical records large amounts of information in medical offices is still on paper. This includes patient records, medical charts, health service provider notes, insurance bills and EOBs. Most of the paper records need to be retained for many years for compliance requirements.

Information which is machine typed in well laid out structured forms lends itself to optical character recognition (OCR) where data capture software can be utilized to capture the information from the incoming paper form.

However, much of the incoming information may not be machine typed or on structured forms. Or, the variability is significant such as in EOBs from different providers. Or, the volume is not sufficiently large to justify an investment in capture software.

Data Entry then becomes the choice selection.

Increasingly clients will use data entry in combination with scanning where incoming paper documents are scanned and data entry is done from scanned images. In addition to offering better document control scanning allows for greater efficiency when keying the data as well as allows for better downstream audit and quality control of data entry.

Utilizing software validation in combination with dual key entry and compare data entry ARDEM achieves 99.97% or higher accuracy in data entry for many of its clients.
