Why Scan In-House?

Need to have your medical charts scanned? Contact us at 615-425-2719 to learn how we can help!

With EMR implementations rolling out like hotcakes, there is a common question that is being asked by all Practice Managers… What to do with my paper charts? We all know they have to be put into the EMR system but what is the easiest and most cost-effective way. Scan in-house or outsource?

Scanning in-house is an overwhelming task for any practice to take on. While there are some that actually succeed, most do not due to the complexity of this process. There are a ton of aspects to consider when trying to tackle a project like this; do I have to hire additional help, what is the best process, what equipment is needed, etc. Practices usually find themselves spending twice as much money and time when trying to scan in-house.

Is there a better option? YES there is!

Outsourcing the project to an experienced document imaging service bureau means your job is completed efficiently and quickly.  No addtional staff or equipment is needed and you, the practice manager, don’t have to add yet another item to your job description.  You can focus on running the practice while your charts are converted faster and more cost effectively than if you kept the job in house.

Many practices have partnered with Pulse due to our experience and knowledge in this field. We convert paper charts to indexed images, named PDF files, or any other digital format needed for import into new or existing EMR or Practice Management Systems.

So commit to EMR and get your charts converted by the Pulse team so you can ensure your EMR rollout is successful!
