Note: Scanning is currently being used at a number of different Partners practices. Contact your LMR support analyst for additional information.
Some sites have the ability to scan paper documents so they can be viewed within a patient’s record as a note in the LMR. Scanning documents is a two-step process and requires a user to:
scan the document
associate or “index” the scanned document with the appropriate patient’s record.
The steps for indexing scanned documents are different based on whether information about the documents is entered into the LMR before or after the documents are scanned.
