Micro Com Systems Ltd. Plays an Integral Role in the Adoption of Electronic Medical Records, Part of $1.3 Billion Trend in Canada
Vancouver, BC (PRWEB) November 15, 2014 -- This comprehensive medical records scanning service makes MCS part of a $1.3 billion savings trend in the Canadian healthcare system that was measured from 2006 to 2012. The PricewaterhouseCoopers research shows that switching from paper to electronic medical records has saved Canadians $800 million in administrative efficiencies from the reduced need to pull and copy charts and engage in similar activities and $584 million in health system benefits paid out for duplicative testing and similar costs. The MCS medical records scanning service has been in operation for 22 years. The company scans well over a million pages a month for multiple clients and can typically convert existing patient data to minimize data entry costs. MCS is equipped to work with every electronic medical records vendor in the market and these small, medium, and enterprise scanning solutions are scalable for any healthcare providers of any size. Free samples of scanned patient charts are provided to all clients considering having MCS convert their paper files..
Healthcare providers who move to electronic medical records report clear benefits in their practice. Electronic medical records allow providers access to more accurate and complete information about patients. They make quicker provision of services possible. They allow for better coordination of care. Electronic medical records also make delivery of care safer, flagging dangerous drug interactions, reducing the likelihood of repetitive tests and procedures, and verifying medication information.
CEO John Smith comments, “We are providing what has become a vital service in the healthcare industry, not just from a cost-saving perspective, but also from a quality and safety perspective.”
