Document import

Bring paper records into the digital record.

Scan or upload paper files, lab results, and letters. ClinicOS helps label each page and file it to the right patient, and your staff confirm before anything is saved.

The problem

Years of history locked in cabinets.

01

Paper only lives in one place

A folder in the records room is no help to a doctor in another building.

02

Filing takes staff time

Sorting and filing results and letters by hand is slow and error-prone.

03

Documents go missing

Loose pages get misplaced, damaged, or filed under the wrong patient.

With ClinicOS

Scan it, sort it, find it again.

Imported documents are labelled by type, such as lab result, referral letter, or consultation note, and matched to the right patient. Staff check the suggestion and confirm.

Scan or upload

Bring in documents from a scanner, a phone camera, or existing files.

Suggested document type

AI suggests whether a page is a result, a letter, a note, or something else.

Matched to the patient

Documents are suggested for the right record using the details on the page.

Staff confirm

Nothing is filed until a team member checks and approves the suggestion.

Part of the history

Imported pages appear in the record and in history summaries.

Batch imports

Work through a backlog of files in batches instead of page by page.

How it works

Three steps, start to finish.

  1. 1

    Scan the pages

    Upload paper files or photos of documents.

  2. 2

    Check the suggestions

    Review the document type and patient ClinicOS suggests.

  3. 3

    File to the record

    Confirm, and the document is saved with the patient's history.

FAQs

Questions about Document import

Something else? Ask us.

Does the AI file documents automatically?

It suggests a document type and a matching patient. A staff member confirms before the document is filed.

Can we use phone photos instead of a scanner?

Yes. Clear photos work, though a scanner gives the most legible results for older or faded pages.

What happens to the original paper?

That is your organisation's decision. Follow your record-keeping and retention policies for paper originals.
