Nuance Extends Partnership With Hyland Software To Deliver Nuance eCopy ShareScan To Hyland OnBase Customers

Hyland OnBase Connector for Nuance’s eCopy ShareScan enables healthcare organizations to scan from the MFP or scanner directly into a patient record in OnBase

Nuance Communications, Inc., recently announced the Company partnered with Hyland Software to enable eCopy ShareScan to scan directly into Hyland Software’s OnBase enterprise content management (ECM) system, enabling healthcare organizations to optimize distributed document capture. This integration accelerates processing of patient records helping organizations achieve the Health Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) Stage 7 of the Electronic Medical Record Adoption Model. OnBase is the primary document management and electronic clinical capture technology in a majority of health systems that have achieved HIMSS Stage 7. With eCopy ShareScan and OnBase, these organizations improve patient care through accelerated capture and immediate access to patient information.

Nuance will showcase the eCopy ShareScan Connector for OnBase at Hyland’s 2013 OnBase Training & Technology Conference (OTTC) September 15-19 in Las Vegas. To see a demo of eCopy ShareScan scanning directly into OnBase at OTTC, please visit the Nuance booth outside the atrium. The eCopy ShareScan connector for OnBase is immediately available for implementations at Hyland customer sites. For more information or to request an evaluation contact Nuance at eCopyforOnBase@nuance.com.

“When doctors and other healthcare professionals need to access patient data, they want the process to be as simple and comprehensive as possible,” said Susan deCathelineau, vice president of healthcare sales and services at Hyland Software. “One of the primary benefits of OnBase is the ability to access data – whether captured through eCopy ShareScan or entered via another method – directly from the patient record in the EHR. With OnBase integrations for leading EHR platforms, the information from scanned documents captured by eCopy ShareScan immediately appears in the EHR along with the rest of a patient’s information, greatly accelerating information access.”

The eCopy ShareScan OnBase Connector enables healthcare facilities to use existing MFPs and scanners at or near the point of care. With a few simple button presses, documents can be scanned and indexed by eCopy to the correct patient record in OnBase for final verification in centralized OnBase workflows – giving clinicians almost instant access to paper-based information. eCopy ShareScan is the world’s best-selling document scanning and workflow solution for networked multifunction printers (MFPs). The eCopy ShareScan application runs directly on the touch panel of the market’s leading MFP vendors including Canon, HP, Xerox, Ricoh and Konica Minolta turning these devices into secure onramps to OnBase workflows. eCopy ShareScan’s ability to support any brand MFP and nearly every scanning device with a consistent user experience makes it an ideal solution for hospitals and healthcare organizations with single or mixed fleet environments.

“The certified integration between eCopy ShareScan and OnBase streamlines document imaging across a variety of distributed entry points through centralized document workflows and reduces delays or issues related to information contained within patient records,” said Michael Rich, senior vice president and general manager, Nuance Document Imaging.

Nuance’s eCopy ShareScan connected with OnBase delivers significant document capture and workflow benefits to many major vertical markets including Financial Services, Healthcare, Insurance, Government and Education. While the joint solution has strong benefits in each of these markets, Nuance’s recognized leadership in healthcare (500,000 clinicians in 10,000+ healthcare facilities worldwide use Nuance solutions) and Hyland’s leadership position in healthcare focused ECM (exclusively endorsed by the American Hospital Association (AHA) and the only ECM vendor with a healthcare focus (1,600+ healthcare organizations use Hyland solutions) to be named a ‘Leader’ in Gartner Inc.'s Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Content Management*) enables Nuance and Hyland to meet the stringent needs of healthcare organizations and delivering immediate benefits.
