Using Offshore Trans & Doc Modules on Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Basis
Small & Medium clinics are increasingly using offshore medical transcription & documentation modules from software-as-a-service (SaaS) providers.
The internet has made this possible, with more and more health care providers looking out for offshore vendors offering both the subscription based transcription + documentation software.
The low wage economies such as India have tech-savvy human resources that offer the service of documenting dictations and then making them available to physicians based in the United States, Canada, or UK.
The software provided by the remote vendor practically does away the need of small and medium clinics to invest in buying the software for customized use.
The clinics instead hire it on pay-as-you-go basis.
The SaaS model not only cuts down expenditure on investments, it also relieves the clinics of system management responsibilities.
The transcription built-in features available in these modules allow physicians to read the dictations into the system with the remote vendor accessing them and documenting them.
The physician can access the documented patient's record on their systems for review, E-sign the paperless record and send it to the patient by e-mail.
The whole process is paperless, unless the patients insist on hard copies.
The software's have huge storage capacities for archiving the records.
The physicians no longer need to prepare fresh profiles of patient's records on follow-up visits by the patient.
The user-friendly features of the application are simple to operate and with just a mouse click, the physician can access the archived medical records and update them, without the need to enter patient profiles all over again.
