With the average Trust sending over 500,000 paper clinical documents to GP practices every year, this amounts to a huge expense. By introducing EDT Hub, documents from Secondary Care organisations can be easily distributed to any GP practice at a fraction of the cost and at a fraction of the time when compared to traditional methods. These documents are then efficiently managed in the practice using Docman where letters are instantly filed in the patient clinical record for instant access. Letters are workflowed to a GP for review, comment and action within the desired time scales all within a secure, efficient system.
A typical Trust utilising EDT Hub annually saves up to £400,000, whilst practices can save £3,480 per year just by removing the need to scan.
Using Docman a typical practice can achieve overall efficiency savings in excess of £10,000 per year.
