1 HEALTHCARE SOLUTION YOUR INNOVATIVE HEALTHCARE PARTNER

2 At Konica Minolta, we understand the need for quality patient care and clinical confidence. That s why our Healthcare Solution is a total offering that includes medical imaging solutions - Digital and Computed Radiography, Ultrasound and IT solution; content and print management with security and reliability. Till now, there are some processes that are still paper intensive with different types of information such as patient intake forms, medical charts, record management and claims being processed manually. The key concerns for healthcare providers are compliance and regulations, accuracy of patient data, coding and billing accuracy and superior patient care and confidentiality of patient data. With changing economics and rising cost for healthcare needs, healthcare providers are looking for ways to transform their operations and processes to handle the rising cost and information whilst delivering high quality service. The challenges they face underscore the need to transform and optimise their operations so that they can deliver better value and service. What can they do to handle the disruptive technologies, complex internal processes, regulatory compliance, new innovations and increasing costs?

3 At Konica Minolta, we empower healthcare providers to provide superior care with our domain expertise and innovation. This way, they can continue their focus on improving their service where we deliver operational efficiency and allow secure and timely information access throughout the organisation.

4 At Konica Minolta, we understand healthcare providers need access to patient records and have to be made available when required. However, patient records are confidential containing their personal information and medical history, hence the need for secure access. In addition, as means to reduce the operational cost, there should be ways to control the associated print spend and have clear visibility of the documents accessed and printed. Seamless integration and access for better patient care The need for a complete, fully integrated medical record is more important than ever. Unstructured documents such as test results, patient forms, letters, faxes which are often paper-based resides in different locations even with EMR in place; hence by integrating these information it will provide faster access to information that will enable them to focus on patient care. Information should be made readily available through the right workflow and processes so as to reduce operational inefficiencies and reduce operational cost. Decisions can be made faster without comprising patient care. The solution can be scaled to meet the clinical and business departmental needs throughout the document workflow patient record management, secure electronic storage, insurance documentation, accounting, finance and human resources. And it can be integrated with the existing workflow and applications like EMR or HIS. This is designed

5 to deliver tools to help speed workflow, increase efficiencies and improve patient experience. Integrations with existing applications help to improve user experience, improve productivity and allow for faster document indexing and eliminate human error from manual entry. In the paper-intensive world of healthcare services, reducing document costs can be a significant factor in improving profitability.

6 Konica Minolta Healthcare Solution helps healthcare providers save time and resources and automate processes such as invoice processing, recruitment, versioning, generating purchase orders and matching which helps to reduce user data entry, speed processing time and increase user productivity in a secure environment. The solution helps to coordinate the capture and approval as well as act as a vehicle of communication between certain parties. With process automation, changing from paper-based to electronic based workflow, it will speed up decision making and work time and at the same time adhere to compliance, privacy, and confidentiality. Users can access the document in an efficient manner. They can access and release print securely based on user authentication and on demand at any printer. This makes it convenient and easy and provides better protection for confidential documents and less print wastage. By monitoring usage, measuring output and managing devices more effectively, the solution allows healthcare providers full visibility of the print environment. Users can generate and view reports based on department or user level and do a chargeback. In addition, service and supplies for Konica Minolta MFPs are automated so as to achieve uptime and better performance.

7 The solution enables healthcare providers to have a total visibility of the process, documents and information while reducing total cost. It captures, manages, processes, distributes and centralises patient records and information in a secure location without compromising compliance. Documents can be routed and distributed across departments for access and approval. This helps to reduce manual intervention and routine processes and increase productivity while having the ability to set control, access and invoke retention policies.

8 SUPPORTING CARE DELIVERY WITH GREATER EFFICIENCY Admission and Discharge In most healthcare institutions the admission and discharge process is a relatively paper-intensive process. The drawbacks include excessive paper usage and spiralling print costs, inadequate or out-of-date paper-based records, the limited availability of records to personnel as only one person can work with them at any one time, and the security concerns of non-authorised access to patient records. Automating the admission and discharge process brings numerous benefits. With automated workflow, it will enable faster admission and eliminate redundant processes. Information captured can be integrated with HIS/EMR. There will be less human error through manual entry and documents can be automatically routed to relevant parties for their actions. This will improve efficiency and reduce administrative duties so that they can focus on delivering better patient care and experience. Administrative and Invoicing Accounting, legal, contract management, compliance and human resources all play pivotal roles in the delivery of care, yet have very little direct involvement with improving health or saving lives. Greater efficiency in these administrative processes can improve patient service, increase security and save time and money.

9 Invoicing and archiving are still paper and labour intensive processes in many hospitals and medical facilities. At Konica Minolta we can help you implement a highly efficient document management system through automated workflows covering all the processes from document receipt and generation to archiving. Besides boosting efficiency and productivity, document management solutions are also cost-savers. Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) Capture, record, store, manage, and track the billing Create a centralised repository for all transactions, eliminating any external data sources or spreadsheets required for tracking and balancing Improve invoice processing through electronic workflow and tight integration with ERPs, portals and other systems Human Resource Department Establish employee record and file all documents without intervention through pre-written rules and process Print forms on-demand to reduce storage cost and wastage Automatically check for missing documents and information for forms submitted notification for actionable items and routed for approval electronically Secure, streamlined records and document capture Benefits Gathering and storing all clinical content for easy access through the EMR Eliminates the costs of printing and storing with print-on-demand and digitisation Improves productivity by providing instant access to content and processes from anywhere Speeds up decision without comprising patient care High availability print environment Automate routine tasks and speed up processing time Secure access to confidential records Allows easy enforcement of security policies and tracks access and activities Facilitates reporting and auditing on the information Establishing a complete patient record and made available to authorised clinicians and staff
