With our
document imaging system you may never want or need an EMR system
Our document imaging software takes a paper medical record and creates
a universal electronic patient medical record that is easily managed.
By scanning patient records into a searchable PDF file that is stored
electronically on a network server, physicians and support staff
can retrieve a patient's records from any networked computer. Our
software also allows patient records to be retrieved easily over
the Internet, from a hospital, a satellite office, or from home.
We are an alternative to an EMR system!
Healthcare is bogged down in paper. Trapped in the antiquated and
inefficient paper- based system, healthcare providers are looking
for way to take advantage of new technologies that reduce costs,
increase productivity and improve patient care.
They have turned to technology for help. However, software developers
are stuck in their own paradigm. They are focused on data and
data management. Nowhere is this truer than with EMR systems.
There is a strong tendency for IT to implement magnificent EMR
systems that have plenty of bells and whistles, but do not efficiently
handle the primary needs physicians set out to address. EMR systems
provide feature-rich solutions that produce more pitfalls than
productive results.
EMR developers have made a critical error by failing to recognize
that medicine is more of an art than a science. Forcing a physician
to a check box and drop-down menu system is similar to instructing
an artist to paint within the lines. For an EMR system to be useful,
it must integrate seamlessly into the physician's decision process
and established method of practice.
We concluded that the problem was not data; it was paper.
Considering that for years the healthcare community has gleaned
all the data needed from a paper document, the inefficiencies
that plague the industry are clearly those associated with mass
paper management.
The answer is a document imaging software that creates a system
that electronically simulates the current paper schematic. The
document imaging process mirrors the paper- based system, duplicating
the workflow pattern for any given task. The only difference is
the unparalleled convenience of retrieving and viewing medical
records in an electronic format. These records are exact replicas
of their paper counterparts. Essentially, a physician can maintain
his or her current pattern of practice while realizing all the
benefits promised by electronic medical records.
And, unlike complicated EMR systems, our document imaging system
is designed to take the complicated and make it simple. In fact,
our document imaging system is so simple to use that office staff
and physicians can master it in less than 15 minutes.

Document imaging in the medical practice.
DIS-Imaging Software is for medical practices that don't have the time, the money, or the staff for a high-maintenance database document imaging system. Why metadata systems, are the only type of systems that most medical practices should consider purchasing.

Is technology your servant or your master?
A document imaging system gives the option of using
both paper and electronic documents harmoniously.
The electronic record fully maintains the "look
and feel" of the familiar and comfortable paper
chart. Nothing has to change in the method by which
the physician performs his or her documentation
of patient care. Unlike an EMR system that requires
your staff to learn new applications, document imaging
allows your staff to maintain their modus operandi;
thus incurring minimal interruption and requiring
a short learning curve.

Audio whitepapers
This audio whitepaper includes an interview with
Jason Van Ittersum, M.D. Dr. Van Ittersum has worked
with several EMR systems, including that of the
University of Michigan Medical Center, and has acted
as a consultant to Document Imaging Solutions, Inc.
These audios highlight the differences between document
imaging and other electronic medical record systems.

Medical practice case study
Lakeshore Dermatology and Skin Renewal Center opened
in August of 2003 and began using our document imaging
system immediately. Currently this office has a
staff of 1 physician, 1 PA, 1 office manager, 6
nurses, 2 receptionists, and 1 biller. They see
85 patients a day.
