5 Capturing Forms with ECR Vault Capture Capturing Forms with ECR Vault Capture The ECR Vault Capture application allows you to scan or import patient forms and other documents and store them permanently to a document archive. Stored documents can be retrieved from the archive as needed. The Capture application can be launched directly from the Patient window in your OfficeMate application. This allows you to scan or import documents for that patient. It can also be launched independently of OfficeMate to scan documents for any patient that you specify or to scan an Explanation of Benefits document for multiple patients. You can also use ECR Vault Capture to capture and store Accounts Payable documents. The capture process has two main stages: Scan/Import: Paper forms and documents are captured using a scanner device. After scanning, on-screen images are created ready for storage to the archive. If you have forms or documents that are already in electronic format, you can import these by browsing for the files on your local or network drives. ECR Vault Capture can import any type of file that you can view on your computer. Note: If you import a type of file for which you have no viewer installed, you will be able to import the file but you will not be able to view it. For example, if you import a Word document and Word is not installed on the Capture and Client computers, you will not be able to view the document. Enter Information: Enter information about the patient and the form or document. If you launched Capture from the OfficeMate Patient window, the appropriate Patient ID will be entered for you. You can search your patient database by last name and first name to locate the correct patient information or you can enter it manually. If you are scanning Explanation of Benefits documents that apply to multiple patients, you can search for multiple patients in the patient database and associate them with the document. Once information has been entered, the form is stored in the document archive. If you are using the Accounts Payable mode, you will enter information about the vendor and the invoice. Security You must log in to ECR Vault using your Office Mate user name and password before you can either capture forms or view forms. ECR Vault Capture User Guide 5

6 Capturing Forms with ECR Vault Capture If you have either ECR Vault Capture or the ECR Vault client open for a period of time without using it, the application will lock and display the Log In window. You will need to log in again to unlock it and continue working. The period of time that must expire before you must log in again is configured during installation and can only be changed by ECR Vault support personnel. By default, it is 45 minutes. Log In to ECR Vault If security is enabled on your system, the User Validation window will be displayed when you attempt to access ECR Vault or when the lock out is activated by leaving the application idle for a period of time.

Note: You can import any type of document into ECR Vault, for example images (tiff, gif, jpeg, bitmap etc), Word documents and other Microsoft Office documents, text files etc. If this is a document that you would normally be able to view in your browser, the document will be displayed in the ECR Vault Capture viewer in the same way as a scanned document. This includes most image files, Microsoft Office files (.doc,.docx,.xls,.ppt etc) if you have Microsoft Office installed on the machine, PDF files if you have Adobe Reader installed and any other types of files where you have software installed that is capable of viewing the files. You can import other types of files but you may be asked to select a program to use to view the file and the fie will open in a seperate window. The pages from the files that you import will be added to the Image List box. Note: In All Images view, some files may display a placeholder thumbnail image. This occurs if the software is unable to generate a thumbnail view automatically. The actual form will be displayed in the Viewer where possible (see above). 10 ECR Vault Capture User Guide

11 Capturing Forms with ECR Vault Capture 3.

Select it and click the Up button. Right click on the page's thumbnail in the All Images view and select Up. See Current View and All Images View on page 12 for more information on the All Images view. 2. To move a page down in the Image List, select it and click the Down button. Select it and click the Down button. Right click on the page's thumbnail in the All Images view and select Down.

Once you begin to enter information and identify forms, pages can no longer be deleted. 1. Select the page that you want to delete in the Image List. 2. Click the Delete button. Current View and All Images View There are two views available in ECR Vault Capture. You can use these views during scanning and document identification. The Current Image view displays only the image that you are currently working on. During scanning (i.e. before you click the Next button), you can change the current image by clicking on it in the Image List. After scanning, the current image is the one that you are currently identifiying. You must identify forms in the order in which they were scanned therefore you cannot change the Current Image, except by completing identification and moving on to the next or by undo-ing the last action and going back to the previous form. See Patient Records Mode - Enter Patient Information on page 18 for more information on identifying forms. See Undo your Last Action on page 26 for more information on undoing your last action. The All Images view displays a list of thumbnails to the left of the viewer. Each thumbnail represents one of the images. To view an image, click on its thumbnail. During form identification, you can use this to view an image other than the one that you are working on. However, it is important to remember that you are still identifying the current image, not necessarily the one that is shown in the Viewer. To see which form is the current one, switch back to the Current Image view. During scanning, you can also use the All Images view to re-order the pages by right-clicking on a thumbnail and selecting Up or Down to move the image in the list. 12 ECR Vault Capture User Guide

This is useful if a document is accidentally scanned upside-down. The All Images tab allows you to view a list of small thumbnail images of each page you have captured. You can display a page in the Image Viewer by clicking on it's thumbnail. The Current Image tab displays only the page currently being processed. During the capture stage, this is the page currently selected in the Image List. In the Patient Information Entry stage (General Mode only), the last page added is the current page. The Current Image tab is unavailable during data entry for EoB mode, because the data entered always applies to the entire document. View Images 1.

17 ECR Vault Capture Modes - Patient Records, Explanation of Benefits and Accounts Payable ECR Vault Capture Modes - Patient Records, Explanation of Benefits and Accounts Payable ECR Vault Capture operates in one of three modes: Patient Records Mode Explanation of Benefits (EoB) Mode Accounts Payable Mode This mode is used to scan forms and documents that relate to a single patient.

You can also enter an expiry date for the document. This is the only mode that is available if you launch Capture directly from your OfficeMate Patient window. See Launch ECR Vault Capture from OfficeMate on page 6. This mode is used to capture documents that apply to more than one patient.

After a patient's drivers licence is scanned or imported into Capture the application recognizes any alphanumeric characters on the driver's license image. These characters are highlighted in the Default Image window. A box is drawn around each word or number.the OCR process will look for and highlight the patient's first name, last name, address, date of birth, and any other text on the image. The patient's first name and last name are automatically recognized and entered into the corresponding boxes in the Patient Information window. You click in another box in the Patient Information window followed by the corresponding piece of information highlighted on the driver's licence image to automatically enter that information into the patient record. 22 ECR Vault Capture User Guide

35 Updating Patient Information using Optical Character Recognition Updating Patient Information using Optical Character Recognition Capture uses Optical Character Recognition (OCR) technology to update patient information records in the OfficeMate patient database. This process is designed to limit the amount of manual data entry performed by the Capture user to save time and reduce clerical errors. After a patient's drivers licence is scanned or imported into Capture the application recognizes any alphanumeric characters on the driver's license image. These characters are highlighted in the Default Image window. A box is drawn around each word or number.the OCR process will look for and highlight the patient's first name, last name, address, date of birth, and any other text on the image. The patient's first name and last name are automatically recognized and entered into the corresponding boxes in the Patient Information window. You click in another box in the Patient Information window followed by the corresponding piece of information highlighted on the driver's licence image to automatically enter that information into the patient record. Note: This feature can be activated automatically or manually. See Extract Data for more information. Figure 30: Optical Character Recognition ECR Vault Capture User Guide 35

39 Print to Archive Print to Archive The ECR Vault Print To Archive allows you to capture any document or form using it's standard viewing application's Print function. For example, a Microsoft Word.doc document can be archived using Word's Print function. To use this feature, you need to print the document as normal, but select the TIFF Printer as the printer to use instead of your usual printing device. Instead of creating a hardcopy on a printer, TIFF Printer will create an electronic image file.you can then identify the form and enter information about it using ECR Vault. Finally the document or form will be stored in your ECR Vault archive. Documents captured using ECR Vault PTA can be retrieved in from your archive in the usual way using the ECR Vault Client. PTA Capture Process Here is an outline of the main steps involved in capturing a document using ECR Vault PTA: 1. Print the documents from their usual viewing application using the TIFF Printer printer. I.e. Microsoft Word for.doc or.docx files, Microsoft Excel for.xls files etc. 2. Review the pages of the document or form that you printed in ECR Vault and reorder or delete pages where necessary. 3. Select the processing mode that you want to use for the form (Patient Infomration, Explanation of Benefits or Accounts Payable). 4. Identify the form type and enter information about it. This information will be used to find it in the ECR Vault archive. I.e. patient information for a patient record or EoB or vendor and invoice information for an accounts payable document. 5. Save the document to the archive. Documents and forms can be searched for and viewed using the ECR Vault Cient. Capturing Documents Using ECR Vault PTA To begin the process of capturing and archiving a document using ECR Vault PTA, open the document in the application that you would normally use to view and print it. For example, open a Word document in Microsoft Word.You will use the Print function of that application to 'print' the document to the archive. ECR Vault Capture User Guide 39

40 Print to Archive When the document has been printed, the pages will be displayed in ECR Vault. In the first screen, you can view, re-order and delete pages. You will also select the processing mode that you want to use for this document. See ECR Vault Capture Modes - Patient Records, Explanation of Benefits and Accounts Payable on page 17 for more information about processing modes.you will then proceed to the next screen and enter information about the document and store it tothe archive. WARNING: After a document is printed to the TIFF Printer, it is stored in the Windows\Temp\images folder until the document is archived to ECR Vault. If the process is interrupted and the documents are not archived, other users who log into the machine will be able to access those documents by browsing to that directory. In addition, if another user later launched ECR Vault PTA, those documents would be presented for identification and archiving.you should always complete the archiving process immediately after your documents have been printed. Important: Once you have printed a document using ECR Vault PTA and begin to process it, you will not be able to add additional pages to the job by printing them. Once you have completed the job and stored the document to the archive, ECR Vault will check to see if any additional documents have been printed and ask if you want to begin processing them now. Capture a Document Using Print To Archive 1. Open the form that you want to capture using the appropriate Windows application. 2. Access the application's Print function. See the application's own documentation for details if you do not know how to do this. 3. In the Print window, select TIFF Printer from the list of available printers. 4. Print the document. 5. Once you have printed your documents to the TIFF Printer, ECR Vault PTA will launch. 40 ECR Vault Capture User Guide

41 Print to Archive Figure 33: ECR Vault PTA The first stage of the process is the Capture stage. During this stage, you can manage the pages in the new job. This allows you to rearrange or delete pages before you start to enter information. These functions all work in the same way as ECR Vault Capture for scanning and importing. Rearrange Pages Pages will be displayed in the order in which they were scanned. To move a page forward or back in the page order, use the Up and Down arrows. See Change Page Order on page 11 for more information. Delete Pages View Pages You can delete a page from the job completely by using the Delete button. The page is removed permanently and cannot be readded to the job. See Delete a Page on page 12 for more information. You can view each page of the document that you printed using the Image Viewer. Click on a page in the Image List to display it. In the Viewer, you can also zoom in and out and rotate pages. See Viewing Forms and Documents on page 14 for more information. 6. Select the processing mode (Patient Records, Explanation of Benefits or Accounts Payable) from the Mode menu. You must select the processing mode before you click Next. You will not be able to change it once you have begun entering information. See Change ECR Vault Capture Mode on page 17 for more information. 7. When you have completed reordering and deleting any pages that require it, click Next to proceed. ECR Vault Capture User Guide 41

42 Print to Archive The next stage is the Form Identification stage. During this stage, you will be asked to enter information about the form and to identify what type of form it is. The information requested depends on the processing mode that you selected during the Capture stage (Patient Records, Explanation of Benefits or Accounts Payable). Figure 34: Identifying Forms (Patient Records mode shown) 8. This stage is the same as in ECR Vault Capture for scanning and importing. See the following pages for detailed instructions on completing this step. Identifying Patient Forms in Patient Records mode. See Patient Records Mode - Enter Patient Information on page 18. Assign patients to an Explanation of Benefits form. See Explanation of Benefits Mode - Add Multiple Patients on page 26. Enter vendor information in Accounts Payable mode. See Accounts Payable Mode - Enter Vendor and Form Information on page If at any time during processing, you decide to abandon the job, you can delete it using the Delete option on the Job menu. See Abandon and Delete a Job on page 34 for more information. 10. If you print additional forms to the TIFF Printer while another job is in progress in ECR Vault, the new pages will not be added to the job in progress. Instead, when you complete the job, you will receive a message, informing you that new images have been found. Click Yes to start a new job with the new pages or No to abandon those pages. If you choose not to process those pages, you will need to reprint them to process them in the future. 42 ECR Vault Capture User Guide
