Medical Record Departments

Some common document types: Patient Records including X-rays, test results, correspondence and critical history information
Healthcare falls under government regulations that are calling for local authorities and hospitals to comply with converting paper to an electronic copy. This will assist in achieving higher efficiency levels without the impact on manual labour allowing valuable staff members to concentrate on their core activities such as patient care.
- Records need to be available 24/7, 365 days a year. Patients don’t always turn up during office hours with an appointment
- Most storage areas are inaccessible and vulnerable to fire and flood which represents a high risk of damage or loss
- Space can be an issue – could your Trust use the archive area for more profitable or cost effective purpose
- Is there a risk of patient care being compromised due to lost or inaccessible records
- Transporting records to the “point of care” can be time consuming and expensive
- Compliance to obtain up to level 3 Clinical Negligence Scheme (CNST) accreditation
