Documentation and Communication

eSignature

Sign incomplete records – anytime, anywhere

PatientKeeper eSignature allows physicians to electronically review, edit and sign chart deficiencies from any Web browser– including transcribed reports, orders, and scanned documents.

Simplify process and save time

With PatientKeeper eSignature, hospital Health Information Management (HIM) departments can automate processes for physicians while achieving medical record documentation compliance:

  • Physicians are automatically delivered a list of unsigned documents - both dictated and scanned
  • Critically overdue items are highlighted
  • Providers can sign one or multiple records
  • Auto-scrolling, edit/decline capability and PIN caching streamline the process  
  • Current e-signature solutions can also be integrated into the PatientKeeper physician portal to give physicians a single access point for all their workflow

The result is timely chart completion for faster billing, improved communication, and overall physician satisfaction.

  • Convenient –
    Physicians review, modify, and sign clinical documents electronically from anywhere at any time – office, hallway, or home—and eliminate visits to the HIM department or multiple system log-ins.
  • Secure –
    A security PIN can authenticate and identify the physician (optional).
  • Faster clinical flow –
    Scanned or dictated clinical documents are available quickly to physicians, for fast review and signature, and immediately updated in the hospital information system or EMR.
  • Improve billing efficiency –
    Final billing can take place faster with rapid document completion and signature.
  • Improved communication –
    Messaging between HIM staff and providers allows for faster resolution of questions or missing documentation.

Platform you can build on

PatientKeeper eSignature further extends the PatientKeeper Physician Portal as a single console for all patient-related and administrative tasks. Other PatientKeeper applications such as Clinical Results, ePrescribing, Charge Capture, and Sign-Out can easily be added to provide a complete workflow tool for clinicians.
