Medical Card Scanner
By peace | June 12, 2007
In the insurance industry, a lot of paper work needs to be done when it comes to checking the medical history of patients. When a case file need to be asked for, such as in the hospital, a lot of procedures are involved. First, writing is to be done, to request for the patient’s case file (medical record history), and after that the letter is being sent out. Thereafter, the hospital will need to handover the letter to the relevant departments and then to the doctor-in-charge. After the doctor-in-charge had the file, endorsed it, then he will sent the relevant letter to the hospital’s reception again.
The whole process of obtaining a person’s past medical history right from the day the letter is being sent out can take at least 3 to 4 weeks. I had several experience in this. I hate it when my insurance clients need to go through all that. But what to do? A lot of time is wasted in traveling and in calling up the hospital during all these time while waiting for the report and asking for the report.
