Best Medical Records and Document Scanners for Healthcare Offices

Document scanners for healthcare offices

Patient charts, insurance cards, and intake forms can pile up quickly, and misplaced paperwork can slow down care. Our document scanners help healthcare offices turn paper into secure, searchable digital records while streamlining intake and record-keeping.

Capabilities of our document scanners 

Capture patient records

Digitize documents and insurance cards to reduce paper and simplify patient record organization.

Ensure accurate data collection

Our advanced image cleanup technology improves image quality to support accurate, reliable data indexing.

Make decisions backed by data

With our imaging solutions, the data you need is at your fingertips so you can improve planning and respond faster.

Collaborate across your organization

Our medical document scanners are compatible with popular data-sharing applications, so it's easy to collaborate between portable patient intake stations, the front desk, and the back office.

Data security considerations for healthcare workflow

Digitizing records can help healthcare offices protect and control the patient information they are responsible for. Depending on the system used to store and manage scanned records, features such as access controls for authorized staff, an audit trail of who opened a record, and encrypted file storage may provide additional safeguards for patient information.

Our scanning technology and image quality support the digitization of healthcare documents. The scanner itself does not provide access control, audit trails, encryption, or other downstream data security functionality. Data security compliance largely depends on the policies, storage, and access controls your organization puts in place around the records once they are captured.

Now when a patient comes in, we just capture the documents … and upload them directly into the patient's EMR—making them secure and instantly available throughout the system… It's a really huge win for customer service, staff time, and— of course—paper reduction.
