Docuscan™ Patient History System

Medical Record (EMR) systems present healthcare professionals with the need for a quick, effective method of capturing patient information. With most EMR programs available today, the patient fills out a form by hand – and medical personnel must key the data into the EMR system. Other EMR programs ask patients to provide historical data using a computer – an approach that can create resistance with technology-averse patients.

Scantron's new Paros pen and paper technology system enables you to automatically capture patient history data, using leading edge technology that is virtually transparent to the patient.

Capturing Patient Information Is As Simple As 1-2-3

• Just ask the patient to fill out the history form in the waiting room, using the digital pen.
• The pen automatically captures the handwritten information by "reading" the special paper on which the form has been printed.
• When the patient has completed the form, you simply slide the pen into a dock at your computer. In an instant, the captured information will be transferred to your EMR system.
