Optio’s first touch with the patient’s healthcare record will start with electronically capturing the patient’s signature on registration forms. Once the patient has been treated, the hospital intends to immediately move any paper-based data from its HIS system to Optio’s electronic health record (EHR).
Lompoc will then fill in any paper exceptions to the patient’s electronic chart by scanning documents with Optio’s imaging tool, which provides intelligent data capture of all types of healthcare information.
With Optio’s multi-level EHR solution, everything that happens during a patient’s visit will be recorded electronically, said Jim White, Lompoc Hospital’s CIO.
Mr White cited ease-of-use and subscription-model pricing as the main reason for his decision to go with Optio. We are a small, rural hospital.. we can’t always go out and purchase the expensive systems because we can’t afford it. We really liked Optio because their healthcare technology was developed with the small hospital in mind.
