Remote Desktop Document Scanning Software for Healthcare

Ensure that your scanners can easily connect to your EHR. For hospitals, clinics and medical offices, error-free medical record and insurance card scanning is critical. You need a reliable, hassle-free document scanning solution that can support using scanners attached to local PCs while logged into your server-hosted electronic health record system (EHR) or electronic medical record system (EMR). And you need to be able to do this while ensuring compliance with strict government regulations, such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). When your EHR, EMR or document management system is hosted in a Terminal Server, VMware, Citrix or Microsoft Azure environment, you can easily connect your document scanners to any ISIS or TWAIN scanning application using RemoteScan.

RemoteScan makes insurance card and medical records scanning an easy, stable and secure process even in the most complex network environments, helping you avoid costly document scanning backlogs.  To scan, you simply log into your EMR via your remote session, navigate to the patient record, then initiate the scan. The scanned medical record is immediately transmitted to the server without touching the local endpoint. Whatever automated post-scanning functions your EMR has can now occur, such as optical character recognition (OCR), indexing, barcode scanning and more. Elements such as DPI, color depth and image dimensions can be preset with customizable defaults and templates in RemoteScan. This takes the guesswork out of medical records scanning, reducing the risk of human error and helping you meet your quality assurance goals.

Capabilities

One-step scanning into the patient record
Eliminates the need for multiple steps with medical records scanning – no need to first save the scanned image to a local or shared drive to then upload later. RemoteScan offers one-step scanning and enables you to seamlessly take advantage of the post-scanning functions of your EMR’s document scanning utility.

Enables using a variety of image capture devices
Digital X-ray machines, intraoral cameras, webcams, digital microscopes and digital cameras can all be used with RemoteScan, in addition to scanners.

Keeps up with high speed scanners
Lossy and lossless compression as well as customizable defaults ensures that scan speeds stay fast without compromising image quality.

Supports all virtualization platforms
RemoteScan works in any kind of virtual desktop environment – Terminal Server, Citrix, VMware Horizon View, Remote Desktop Services and Microsoft Azure.

Supports HIPAA compliance
Scanned images are immediately transmitted to the server, not stored on the local endpoint. Additionally, RemoteScan uses the virtual channels to transmit the scanned image, inheriting whatever encryption is already in place – no new ports are opened.

RemoteScan Document Scanning Software for Government

Connect scanners to your remotely hosted document management system. Document management in the public sector requires secure and error-free document scanning. By integrating a remote scanning system into your current network environment, you’re able to maximize efficiency, meet compliance requirements, use your existing hardware, reduce human error and achieve a seamless document workflow with a minimal number of steps.

RemoteScan provides you with a document scanning software solution that offers seamless virtual integration of scanners into your Remote Desktop, Remote Desktop Services, Microsoft Azure, VMware, or Citrix environment. Your end users simply connect any scanner to their PC or workstation and scan directly into the document management system, wherever that software is hosted. And, RemoteScan can be easily installed by any end user without the help of technicians.

Capabilities

Provide flexible and stable scanner connectivity over the network
When your document management software is hosted on a server, you need a remote scanning solution to ensure that your existing scanners can connect to the server-hosted software, no matter where your users are located or how complex your network. RemoteScan provides the most flexible support possible, accommodating any TWAIN and WIA compliant scanners, Fujitsu ScanSnaps, any remote desktop environment and all TWAIN and ISIS compliant document scanning programs.

Send scanned documents to your server in one fast and easy step
When your scanned documents need to be stored on your server, RemoteScan bypasses the need for a multistep document scanning process. With RemoteScan, the scanned image is immediately transmitted to the server in just one step – no need ever to initially save documents to the local workstation. What’s more, RemoteScan keeps up with high speed scanners even over the most complex networks.

Reduce the risk of human error
When documents are scanned using incorrect settings it results with scans that are difficult to read or file sizes that are too large to efficiently send over your network. Defaults and templates allow you to lock down choices for scanner settings, providing consistent results in the quality of the scanned images.

Enable a compliant scanning workflow
Achieving compliance means controlling where your sensitive data lives. If your scanned images are stored on the local endpoints, your risk of that data landing where it shouldn’t increase exponentially. With RemoteScan, the scanned images are never stored on the local workstations – they are immediately transmitted to the server using whatever encryption you already have in place.

User-friendly installation and interface
RemoteScan can be installed in under five minutes. RemoteScan presents a standard scanner interface so that end users can have a consistent experience, no matter what model of document scanner they are using.

Webcam capabilities
Enable you to use RemoteScan with imaging devices, including webcams and digital cameras, in the same way as a scanner. Software applications that incorporate either scanning or image acquisition can share and access imaging devices that are connected to remote client workstations or PCs.

RemoteScan Document Scanning Software for Freight and ERP

Integrate scanners into your freight management workflow. Freight companies and truck drivers need fast and secure scanner connectivity while on the road and working in branch offices. You want reliable, hassle-free freight scanning software that enables mobile employees to connect document scanners with your remotely hosted freight management software, no matter where the scanners are located. You must also ensure customer data and critical internal records are secure and not stored on the endpoints.

With RemoteScan, you get easy, secure, hassle-free scanning of delivery receipts, bills of lading, invoices, trip reports, logs, and more. This ERP scanning software solution offers seamless virtual integration of scanners in your Remote Desktop, Terminal Server, VMware, vWorkspace, Citrix/XenServer or LAN environment. Your end users simply connect any scanner to their PC or workstation, and scan directly into the freight management software, wherever that software is hosted. The end user simply logs into the remote session, accesses the scanning utility in the remotely hosted scanning application, and the local scanner is detected. The scanned image is immediately transmitted over the encrypted virtual channels, and is never stored on the mobile employee’s workstation. This supports a secure workflow for sensitive data. Additionally, the scanned image is immediately available on the server, ensuring real-time transmission of critical documents, faster invoicing and fewer errors. And, RemoteScan can be easily installed by any end user, without the help of technicians.

Capabilities

Scanning directly into your freight management software
Eliminates intermediary stored image files, custom configurations, or programming or image file manipulations. Scan any document, including delivery receipts, bills of lading, invoices, timesheets, logs, trip reports, mileage reports, and more. RemoteScan removes the need to outsource or scan from kiosks. This ensures real-time transmission of critical forms and documents, saving time and reducing errors, in addition to ensuring critical data is never stored on the mobile endpoints.

Integration with in-cab scanners
Allows you to use your Terminal Services, VMware or Citrix networks with any TWAIN-compliant, in-cab scanners because RemoteScan works with any TWAIN or WIA imaging device.

Webcam capabilities
