Northumbria NHS Foundation Trust
Patient Record Digitisation Case Study
Background
Northumbria Healthcare NHS Foundation Trust, which runs hospitals and community services in the county as well as North Tyneside, awarded a scanning contract worth more than £10 million to Cleardata.
This involved the conversion of more than 1.2 million traditional paper records into digital versions over a three-year period, in line with the NHS digital transformation plan. This digitisation enhanced patient care as clinicians are able to access records across the trust’s sites and share information easily.
Once scanned, the patient records are viewed by Northumbria clinicians on a next-generation electronic document management solution provided by IMMJ Systems. The system, MediViewer™, was specifically built for UK healthcare trusts and clinicians are able to use SmartIndex™ technology which makes the patient record easy to view and search.
