Kodak Case Study - Riverside Surgery selects a Kodak i2400 scanner solution to improve access to patient medical information

3rd September 2012

Kodak today announced that Worcestershire-based, Riverside Surgery, has selected an i2400 scanner solution to process clinical correspondence received through the post related to 13,500 patients in its care.

With up to 150 letters received each day including correspondence from hospitals and patients and minor operation consent forms, the Kodak i2400 scanner integrates with PCTI’s Docman electronic document management and workflow solution to provide all clinical staff within the surgery access to patient information directly from its iSOFT Synergy clinical software.

Operating from purpose built premises completed in 1991, Riverside Surgery has a clinical team of 20 comprising seven GPs, five nurses, three healthcare assistants, along with district and practice nurses, health visitors and a social worker. It serves Evesham and surrounding villages and was presented with a Royal College of General Practitioners’ Quality Practice Award in 2005.

Becky Sparrow, Riverside Surgery’s IT manager, says, “Our existing scanner was slow and end-of-life and needed replacing. Having seen the Kodak i2400 scanner, we were impressed by its speed, feature set and potential to save us time and money, with Kodak’s free three year warranty guaranteeing service over time.”

Able to process up to 2,000 pages per day at 30 pages per minute, the compact i2400 Scanner comes with Perfect Page imaging technology and uses next generation dual indirect LED illumination which eliminates traditional lamp warm up time, so staff can scan safe in the knowledge that the very best, crystal clear images will result straight away.

Becky Sparrow adds, “In addition to speed, the Kodak i2400 rotates pages so everything is the right way up, as well as automatically scanning colour pages. Previously we had to photo copy colour documents to improve quality – and then scan them - which was hugely time wasting.”
