Automated Healthcare Information Processing with Esker Cloud Fax Services

Esker Cloud Fax Services is the nexus of efficient healthcare information processing. Medical professionals of all kinds can achieve a fully automated communication exchange that goes beyond fax and EMR systems for end-to-end automation in multiple paper-based processes.

With 25 years of business experience, Esker has worked with a host of noted healthcare applications, including: Allscripts, CPR+, Epic, Healthland, Lumedx, McKesson EMR, MedInformatix, NextGen, QuadraMed, Vitera, and more.

LABORATORY ORDERS

Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) are still evolving, and the data that laboratories need to manage continues to grow. Yet, fax remains a common channel for ordering tests and processing the results. Esker Cloud Fax Services enables labs to streamline fax-intensive processes by creating customized workflows and integrated data exchange with LIMS applications.

MEDICAL DOCUMENTS

Electronic Medical Record (EMR) Systems are widely adopted in order to reduce paper, cut costs and improve care. But to fully capitalize on the benefits of “paper-free,” more and more healthcare organizations are evaluating their outdated fax machines and fax software. The conclusion? Not only is Esker Cloud Fax Services more cost effective and secure, but its innovative tools provide significant value to the operations and services provided by healthcare organizations.

PRESCRIPTION PROCESSING

The benefits of ePrescribing (e-Rx) are well known — improved patient safety, increased accuracy and improved efficiency of prescription processing. However, Esker recognizes that not every prescription is an e-Rx. That’s why we’ve developed a unique set of tools that allows pharmacies to electronically process prescriptions received via fax. With no software or hardware requirements, Esker Cloud Fax Services brings visibility, accuracy and greater efficiency to prescription processing.

PATIENT REFERRALS

Delivering efficient care begins with patient data being captured quickly and accurately. Technology features within Esker Cloud Fax Services, such as Dynamic Data Capture (DDC) and the Document Manager, enable the complete automation of patient referrals and other inbound documents. Once referrals are received via fax, scan or email into Esker system, key data is extracted and the document is electronically presented to an end user via a validation screen. Once validated, the new patient record can be created within the EMR system.

RADIOLOGY REPORTS

When sending faxes, it is absolutely critical for Radiology Service providers to do so reliably and efficiently. Unfortunately, fax machines (time-consuming and risky to HIPAA security) and fax software (expensive and encompassing multiple components) are less than ideal solutions. Esker Cloud Fax Services offers an easy to use and simple to maintain turnkey solution to achieve comprehensive reporting — all without managing software, hardware or phone lines.
