Tablet PC-based Patient Information Management
Streamline Healthcare Worflow and Records Management
Healthcare delivery is highly regulated. The average hospital handles over 100,000 documents a day, each of which is touched by an average of ten people during its lifecycle. Some of the most important users and creators of these documents (doctors and nurses) have workflows that are deeply rooted in paper-dependent processes.
Fortunately, there is an answer to this problem. By marrying the MACH 2 Tablet PC based user interface with the SpringCM platform, the Digitized Patient Information Management solution allows you to digitize a pen-based document at the point of its creation to permit immediate data capture into the SpringCM system. The flexible solution provides a user friendly interface for the clinician that saves time by eliminating data entry and has maximum flexibility to meet the needs of a highly-complex, regulated and constantly changing environment. Most important, physicians will have the ability to easily find the clinically important nuggets of information that are so important to quality patient care.

Integration
Import of any type of client paper forms currently in use or desired is very helpful to integrate into the workflow of your clinical workers. Integrating SpringCM with your line-of-business (LOB) medical systems is a crucial component to your document management and process automation solution's success. SpringCM offers a number of ways to integrate your systems from the very basic to the most elegant using our service-oriented architecture (SOA). Basic integrations can be as loosely coupled as using a flat file or as tight as using SpringCM's Web services capabilities for seamless and productive integration with your applications.
