Years ago, I remember talking to a company that has desktop scanners that are configured to work with specially designed pre-printed forms. Scan the document, it senses where the marks are, and creates an input file that a custom VFE form reads. It could be used for PHQ-9 screening, or most anything.

But, I can't seem to find the name of the company in my email archives.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Thanks.

Joseph,

I don’t recall a company name but I believe the technology is called OMR (optical mark recognition). Another solution you might want to consider is to use an iPad or Android-based tablet to collect the information (I’m assuming these are forms the patient is completing) and then have a form in Centricity that allows you to review the submitted data. I know of someone building a solution like this and would be happy to connect you. I started building my own solution until I found out he was already ahead of me; now I’m just feeding him requirements. He might be open to you guys being a beta site once he gets it going.

Thanks Laurie.

I just could not remember that company name. I was talking to someone about approaches, but could not remember the company.

Visual Signature Capture has a web interface that lets you collect and update patient demographics, observations, and signatures and pull the obs and demographics into Centricity forms from almost any browser on any device. Can also launch the product from a form and pull in observations from the current update.
