Integrated Document Management

Integrated Document Management (IDM) means far more than just maintaining electronic versions of your documents. IDM is a streamlined, efficient process that increases productivity while reducing paper-handling costs.

When you convert your paper documents to electronic images, expect greater efficiency in your business processes. IDM solves the problems inherent in working from hardcopy documents—lost papers, access by one person at a time, copying expenses, shipment to other locations, and storage.

The workflow, which can be customized to fit the requirements of your business, is based on automatically routing electronic documents, eliminating time wasted on distributing and retrieving papers. The Quadmax suite of products, Regmax, Codemax, and Remitmax, enhances the process by using electronic images to expedite the entry of patient demographic, procedure coding, and remittance data.

Key features of this electronic content management system are:

• Comprehensive management of digital documents and unstructured content
• Dynamic organization and control of storage and delivery of documents
• Interactive management of the business processes in which these documents are used
• Support for information-sharing infrastructure

Integration with existing applications

With each custom IDM solution, Quadax explores ways to integrate document management with the existing line-of-business applications. Two important features are:

Indexing enrichment. Quadax can extract the data from your core business applications and apply additional index values to your electronic documents. This is accomplished by utilizing a common value found in both your core business and imaging applications. For example, if a scanned medical chart shares the same medical record number as a patient within your core business application, the process can automatically apply the patient name, attending physician, and service date as additional index values.

Image enabling core business applications. Quadax can image enable core business applications, such as A/R or EDI management systems. Your users can then access electronic documents directly from your core business application with a click of a mouse or a keyboard action. Users do not need to learn a new application because imaging is simply an extension of the application they already know. The true beauty is that this integration can commonly be accomplished without involving your core business application vendor.
