"The sheer volume of paperwork in the hospital was staggering and massively time-consuming. We had 18 months of paperwork taking up wall and floor space. That is now all stored digitally, which has created a more safe and pleasant working environment.”
Canon & Healthcare
Supporting Healthcare to deliver better patient outcomes.
We can help
Canon has a wealth of experience working with the Healthcare sector to:
Our Healthcare solutions
Intelligent scanning
As nurses, doctors and consultants move around wards, between sites, and within communities, patient notes are continuously being updated. Our intelligent capture solutions allow healthcare professionals to quickly scan and save important information such as medical reports, test results and referrals in secure, cloud-based document management systems accessible by authorised personnel – for a truly interoperable environment. Intelligent OCR enables automated archiving and quick retrieval – helping improve collaboration across healthcare for better patient experiences.
Automated processes
Digitised documents can be moved quickly across stakeholders, and for repeatable processes such as Admissions, Transfers and Discharges. Automated workflows can speed up patient diagnosis and processing, freeing up time to see more patients.
Cloud & Mobile Print
Enable your hybrid workforce to print wherever they are, and future proof your organisation with a cloud print infrastructure that is easily scalable to the required number of users, removes onsite print IT server costs and space, and offers peace of mind on the security front with a UK Microsoft Azure™ data centre and Zero Trust capability.
Inhouse Print Solutions
Despite the push to Digital Transformation, print still remains an important part of healthcare’s service. Find out how we can help you deliver high quality on demand personalised output whilst reducing outsourced print costs.
Managed Print Services
Whilst print is important, printing costs can be a significant overhead and place extra demands on IT departments. With Canon’s Managed Print Services, we’ll ensure you are reducing the cost of print procurement so savings can be reinvested in patient care. Our Managed Print Services also shift the time taken to manage and maintain your print infrastructure away from your IT teams, so they can focus on higher priority initiatives, like driving interoperability.
Digital Mailroom
Get incoming paper mail where it needs to be across multiple sites and dispersed workers, automatically classifying documents and routing them to the correct process or person.
Hybrid Mail
Our hybrid mail service can help Trusts deliver better patient care by ensuring patients receive their letters quickly and reliably thus reducing the number of 'did not attend' occurrences. Other benefits for the NHS include less time taken up with patient complaints about late or missing letters and fewer resources required to dispatch letters, freeing up resource to improve the patient pathway.
“The improved turnaround for transaction processing has eliminated a two day month end document checking process. It has also streamlined the query resolution process, which could take up to five days with documents being moved around the site – now only takes one day on average.”
Frameworks
We are partnered with multiple public sector frameworks to provide premium quality solutions to the health sector.
