Healthcare organisations and clinical trials generate ten billion paper forms each year. Transcribing dictated chart notes can delay access to the information by days, weeks in some organisations. And that means updated medical records often are not available when doctors most need them. Once transcribed records must be stored in the chart and physically transported when needed. While many may need access to the records, only one person can view a record at a time. In short, paper records are inefficient and outmoded.
Paper character recognition software; but this method is prone to error and demands costly, labor-intensive oversight and double-checking.
