We're wrapping up 2009 with our final edition of Kainos News. It's been quite a challenging year for all but thankfully things have remained reasonably busy at Kainos.

You'll notice that much of our news this quarter is focused around the health industry. During the year Kainos began working with a number of Health Trusts and based on this work, developed ConnectPatient, a solution that provides instant access to electronic patient medical records. It's built on document and records management techniques and technologies - an area that Kainos is very familiar with.

In addition to our health news we've got our usual customer focus. This time we profile Havant Borough Council. The Havant EDRM project also won "Public Sector Project of the Year" at the recent Document Management Awards, an accolade we're very proud of.

On this occasion, we'd like to take this opportunity to wish everyone the very best this Christmas and we hope you have a Happy New Year.

Kainos Introduces ConnectPatient

Instant and secure online access to electronic medical records for hospital and trust staff can now be a reality with Kainos's next generation Electronic Medical Record (EMR) solution - ConnectPatient.

Built on document and records technologies and techniques, ConnectPatient is a complete solution and approach that eliminates the need for physical patient case notes. It also includes services to support the establishment of high end in-hospital scanning operations, required as part of the modernisation of hospital medical records centres.

Scanned patient records are accessible from a portal which is augmented with patient information, collated from existing clinicians systems such as PAS, Radiology and Pathology. It enabling clinicians, nurses and clinical admin staff to access all relevant patient information electronically.

Intelligent Scanning

An important feature of the ConnectPatient solution is the scanning of the existing physical case notes and the level of automation that can be achieved for the scanning of future case notes.

The intelligent scanning solution from Kainos goes beyond the vanilla scanning that trusts and hospitals may be used to. Peader McCaffery, one of our scanning experts tells us a little more about Kainos's intelligent scanning solutions, or ConnectCasenotes. Read more
