Over 40 years supporting the healthcare sector

Delivering a digital transformation programme in the healthcare sector has its own set of challenges. The healthcare specialists at EDM understand these challenges. The sector strives towards going paperless whilst at the same time creating more and more documentation. Safe, secure storage of your records and pinpoint precision when scanning is, at times, a matter of life and death. You need to use a digitisation partner with a clear understanding of your needs. Additionally, managing quick access to records remains paramount within the sector which is why EDM has invested heavily in its Scan-on-Demand capabilities to meet these demands. 

Our dedicated experts have helped multiple healthcare organisations meet their digitisation goals, by improving efficiency and patient care through our cost-effective and comprehensive solutions. Take a look at some of the organisations we have worked with to deliver their digitisation and medical record scanning projects.

Improving patient data sharing and operational efficiency

The solution has enabled better sharing of clinical data for the Trust, allowing doctors to collaborate and work remotely on patient diagnoses. Operational efficiency has been increased, with clinical staff spending less time on admin and subsequent episodes of care scanned and linked to the main record.
