I would suggest scanning them in and associating that scan with either a visit or a historical note. If you didn't sign up to test the HUI scanning package, send me an email and I will send you the information you need to give it a test drive. That will allow you to do what I have suggested.

In such a case, they bring (hard/soft) copies of reports of previous investigations (Lab, Radiology, ...) and other treatment history. How can all this information be captured into VistA? Typically a patient comes in with a couple of lab tests & X-rays with reports. We want to store the results/reports of the investigations including information about where the test/examination was conducted... How can this kind of data be managed in VistA? I do know about the 'Registration of outside Films' option in the Radiology package, but even that does not pull in the reports, it's only to register outside films, mainly for easing the process of tracking and returning the physical film. Besides the interst is primarily relating to Lab data.
