Please see my answers below. We implemented PR in January and are working on customized programming for the BO product. MR will be implemented within the next 6-8 months, probably. Julia F.

HTML will be converted to attachments. The meditech-l web site is MTUsers.com ====================================== Hi Joni, We've been with Valco for a couple years now. We have PR and Business Office scanning. 1. As far as PCI and categories, one of our main reasons for scanning was to capture the referral/order and import it to PCI. So we have categorized all referrals into one category called Physician Referral. All other documents scanned in ADM such as Photo ID, Ins Cards are in a category called Registration. [Julia Carter] In PCI, we started with a category for each form, but quickly realized that was too broad, so we have one category: MRF (Medical Record Forms). The admissions forms that go into PCI in MRF are orders, demographic (face sheet), photo ID (and over-sized) and insurance card (and over-sized) as well as any pre-cert or pre-auth documents that are presented. I think that as long as you're consistent and let your users know where the forms are located, you can use the categories in the way that makes most sense for your facility. I also discovered that different Valco consultants have different ideas of what works best. 2. We just started using the Visioneer XP300 as well as the XP200 and they are working well for us. We've only been using them for about 2-3 months so I don't have any long term reliability experiences to give you. [Julia Carter] We started with the Visioneer Strobe XP200. They are okay, but I wouldn't give them an A+ on reliability and durability. I bought 14 and had 3 not work right out of the box. The 200 doesn't duplex, so as we replace or add, we'll go with the 300. We also have issues where the PC and the scanner stop talking and nothing but a power-off/unplug scanner/power-on/reconnect scanner will work. I haven't researched that enough to know if it's PC, scanner, network or combo related. 3. I prefer to use the built in viewer that comes with Meditech(Magic). It works pretty well and there's no additional install to do unlike if you used Viewer. As far as I know the only way to get the built in viewer with Meditech is to use version 3.26P or the 4.18P. This Meditech viewer allows you to rotate, zoom and print. [Julia Carter] For functionality, I prefer the Valco viewer, especially for heavy users, but for occasional viewing, the Meditech viewer is perfectly acceptable. I do agree that the additional install of the Valco viewer is cumbersome when updates are done, etc. Having to touch each PC (we don't have any 'roll out' software) when there's an update is a pain.

The meditech-l web site is MTUsers.com ====================================== Hi, We're in the process of getting ready to implement Valco's Paperless Registration and Medical Records applications. A few questions for anyone out there using Valco. 1. PCI--Any advice on how to set up categories, subcategories and form id's. Best practice, lessons learned, etc. 2. Anyone using the xp300 small scanner and are they pretty reliable for various types of scanning? 3. Viewer: For PCI-do you use the PCI viewer or the Valco viewer. Pros/Cons?
