Gail, We are 5.5.2 CS and have implemented point of contact scanning in our admissions areas with Meditech's SCA product. We are currently utilizing card scanners and scanning only drivers licenses and insurance cards. We have also purchased some small travel scanners that will do sheets of paper. We look to use those for referral/authorization paperwork and by only a few clerks, although our PCs have the ability to have more than one scanner attached.
We have found that some of the full page documents were going to scan at registration, may still be manipulated some before their final destination in medical records so scanning them at the beginning was not going to capture the complete correct version (doctors orders, consents, etc.). We plan to scan what paper documents there are in the medical record on the back end, in their final and complete state.
