Hospitals
A Document System that Turns Hospital eForms into Better Business
The management of forms is one of the most costly and complex areas of healthcare administration. Most hospitals have dedicated staff who handle the creation and management of these ever-growing documents. While staff focused on these tasks also have other responsibilities, it’s estimated that they spend 30% of their time manually processing forms each day. With as many as 400-500 different forms in stock and 2,000-3,000 forms being used each day, there is a mountain of time and energy devoted to forms. That toll doesn’t even begin to account for the printing costs and environmental ramifications, since many of these are preprinted forms that must be printed and stored.
DigiDoc can change this. Dramatically. In fact, we helped a top ten national hospital system with 175 facilities in 20 states save $11.4 million and reduce or eliminate the need to purchase forms. Overall, our healthcare facilities have saved 60% on the cost of printed materials alone.
With a sophisticated elegant electronic form management system like DigiDoc, you can create solid bottom-line savings and measurable operational efficiencies—it all adds up to better business and better care.
We recognize that acute care hospitals spend a lot of time wrestling with patient care forms, and we’ve devised scalable solutions to meet their unique needs.
Using DigiDoc’s cloud-based secure software, employees have instant access to the forms and digital signing solutions they need most. DigiDoc keeps these forms accurate and compliant by controlling document versions, creating customized form packages, providing guidance on reporting and governance, and access to patient handouts.
Not only do we understand the landscape, but we’ve helped organizations navigate it. We teamed up with acute care providers with over 800 locations in 26 states and retaining 13,000 employees. Together we've created fully automated systems that covers point of purchase to invoicing, turning large organizations into nimble, connected, and more effective ones.
We’re here to help other acute care hospitals and organizations do the same—by organizing and optimizing their paperwork to save time, money, and sanity.
