Document Control Tool

The Document Control Tool automates the process of getting transcriptions and the corresponsing patient and doctors list ready for upload to your online Transcription provider (e.g. Ozescribe, GTS, NTS, Syberscribe etc). It also fully automates the process of importing the completed documents into your database, either HCN's Blue Chip or Medical Director into the relevant patient file.

Special features
The Tool has the "By Practice" and "By Practitioner" modes as well as options to set the "Defer printing" or "Mark for Review" flags. The Tool has extended scripting language for automatic execution.

Business Process
The process is as simple as clicking a button once each working day, to import documents into the database, and clicking two more buttons to export patients and referring doctors into the relevant scribing software.

Hardware and Software System Requirements
There are no special requirements other than ones already covered by an HCN product or the Transcription Services provider software. HCN software must already be installed by the time of installing Document Tool. Transcribing software doesn't have to be installed, but it must already be known.

Installation
The Installation is a very simple process. The installer has a built-in function to discover the HCN product installed and use the discovered connection parameters accordingly.

Payment
The trial mode allows for the application to run in a fully functional mode for 14 days for free. During this time, the user needs to buy a licence from the web site. As soon as the credit card transaction is completed, an email is automatically sent to the provided email address advising the licence number to be entered into Document Control Tool.
