Import Feature

The data import feature allows hospitals to import data from other systems into the EBC. This allows hospitals to eliminate double entry of data and reduce keystroking by bringing in data already in other automated systems. All data including alpha characters and numeric/date items can be automatically imported with this feature. If any data needs to be entered manually, it can be entered just as before so no additional training is required for the operator.

This popular feature is used to import data from sources such as hospital admission systems, electronic medical records, and other hospital data bases. Hospitals using this feature have saved up to 50% on time required to enter the information, resulting in substantial savings in data entry expenses. This feature also keeps data consistent between your hospital's systems and insures data integrity by eliminating the possibility of errors that result when the data is entered twice.
