ECM Solutions for Healthcare Forms Management

Eliminate the Costs and Delays Associated with Paper Forms

Managing paper forms delays patient care and service, drives up financial and environmental costs and limits information sharing.

The Perceptive Software Healthcare Forms Management Suite is a comprehensive electronic forms (e-forms) offering that enables hospitals to eliminate the need for paper forms. This solution offers functionality designed specifically to meet the needs of the hospital environment and integrates seamlessly with ImageNow document management, document imaging, workflow and other Perceptive Software ECM technology to make information available in real time, across the facility.

This proven solution helps hospitals streamline patient registration and other processes once dependent upon paper forms. Hospitals can capture vital patient information at the point of registration and during the encounter, incorporate it in a secure content repository, initiate dependent workflows and make it accessible within the electronic patient record (EPR).

When combined with Perceptive Software solutions for patient admissions, HIM and clinical areas, the Forms Management Suite improves information sharing, supports patient safety and disaster planning initiatives and reduces the incidence of document loss.

With this innovative solution, your hospital can:

• Capture and share forms-based content immediately without the risk of loss
