Allscripts Optical Character Recognition OCR
Optical Character Recognition During the Document Imaging Process
By simply marking the appropriate checkbox, TouchChart OCR electronically reads the words on the document and places them into a searchable database. The document is still indexed and store automatically in the appropriate patient record or electronic file cabinet, but now all the words are viewable and searchable in the "full-text search" field.
Allscripts commitment and focus remains on continuing to improve our technology for ease of use. In order to supply our customers with the next level of document management technology we have created an OCR module for TouchChart. Locating data or documents with key word searches is easy with TouchChart OCR. By simply marking the appropriate check-box, TouchChart OCR electronically reads the words on the document and places them into a searchable database. Because of the optical character recognition (OCR) processing, words are viewable and searchable in a Full-Text Search field of the document.
