Learn More Inside
Many organizations believe that EHR/ EMR systems promote organizationalefficiency, but they are limited to managing structured content, leaving providerswith no way to store, locate, route, review or approve unstructured content such as:
Supporting patient information including admissions items, outsidelab reports and medical history files.
Back-office documentation including EOBs, invoices, purchaseorders, compliance records and employee files.
Laserfiche allows healthcare organizations to centrally and securely manageall of their content, providing a critical complement to EHR/ EMR, HIS andother clinical and back-office applications.

Improve Patient Service
Laserfiche streamlines admissions procedures and simplifies the work of front- deskpersonnel by allowing them to quickly scan and retrieve admissions items such asdriver’ s licenses, referrals, insurance cards and more.
Laserfiche also automates the filing process, accelerating admissions and making iteasy to link digital content in the Laserfiche repository to electronic medical recordsstored in an EHR/ EMR.
Accelerate informationretrieval and answerpatient inquiries faster.
Reduce misfiling anddocument loss, alongwith their related costs.
Eliminate the expense associatedwith copying, filing, transportingand storing paper documents.
Automatically route test resultsand updates to physicians assoon as information is enteredinto Laserfiche.
Reduce the Cost of Compliance
Laserfiche serves as the records management cornerstone of your HIPAA and JointCommission compliance initiatives. It provides comprehensive security that protectssensitive patient data while still allowing authorized personnel instant access to theinformation they need to deliver outstanding care.
With Laserfiche, healthcare organizations:
Use audit trails to demonstrateadherence to established retentionand access procedures.
Ensure proper destructionof expired patient records.
It’s much safer having patient information in a secure, electronic
repository than to have paper copies of records lying around on
people’ s desks. No one can access Laserfiche without a log- in
and a password. Even then, everyone’ s level of access is tailored
specifically to their role and responsibilities.

Enhance Back-Office Processes
Although there is currently a great deal of focus on the efficiencies that can be gained byemploying EHR/ EMR systems, these systems are focused exclusively on patient records. In contrast, ECM provides back-office benefits across the entire organization, including:
Accounting: Simplify the payment cycleby automatically routing requisitions andlinking documents that must be matchedor reviewed for payment, such as purchaseorders, bills of lading and invoices.
Credentialing: Streamline the credentialingprocess by scanning and organizing payerapplications, diplomas, licenses, CVs, CMEsand contracts, and then routing applicationpackets to reviewers such as departmentchairs, the medical executive committeeand/ or the board.
Facilities Management: Manageproperty and equipment purchaserecords, warranties, tax forms, leaseagreements and repair and maintenancecontracts.
Human Resources: Automate the hiringand HR onboarding process, securepaperwork in employees’ personnel filesand manage record retention schedules.
Legal: Manage partnership and jointventure agreements, case files, businessand employment contracts, compliancerecords and correspondence.
After implementing Laserfiche, the speed at which we
can process applications skyrocketed. We’re currently
completing approximately 1,500 applications a month,
which is up from just under 800 a month a year back.
