MedFORCE Technologies Software Release
WATERLOO, Iowa -- A new version of MedFORCE Scan is being introduced this week at the Heartland Conference 2004. MedFORCE Scan is the only HIPAA-compliant document imaging solution designed for the DME-HME industry.

MedFORCE Scan is specifically designed to meet the ongoing challenges of the healthcare industry and uses the latest technologies available in today’s digital world. It replaces existing manual filing systems with a centralized digital system, functioning just like the paper files that clients are used to dealing with.

MedFORCE Scan allows for various levels of authority for accessing, updating and printing patients’ files, and can produce HIPAA reports on-demand. Electronic Remittance Notices can be automatically imported into patients’ files and printing of Explanations of Medical Benefits for a specific patient can be isolated and simplified for easier follow-up.

Among the new features being introduced in the current upgrade are:

• Highlighter tool

• White-out tool

• Enhanced sticky notes

• Recycle bin function

• Printer driver

• On Line technical support, launch from the application

• Patient summary reports

• Folder content reports

• Claim review forms

• Central and remote scanning for multi location offices

“All of the product improvements that are being introduced are the direct result of customer feedback,” explains Esther Apter, CEO of MedFORCE Technologies, Inc. and president of sister company Healthcare Management Solutions Inc. “Our consultative approach allows us to stay on top of customer needs; that’s why we introduce frequent – and free – upgrades to anyone who purchases an annual maintenance contract.”

MedFORCE Scan was first introduced to the public last year. It is currently on its third version and a fourth will be rolled-out in the Fall of 2004.

“MedFORCE Scan has very quickly become an extremely valuable resource to our company,” explains Irene Magee, vice president / director at Northeast Home Medical Equipment. “It improved our ability to track orders, answer patient and referral source questions, audit charts for quality assurance and allowed a visual comparison of the patient record to support billing.”

MedFORCE Technologies is a VGM Group partner and offers discounts to VGM Members. The company is also a reseller of Canon scanners.
