The challenge

The Hospital handled more than 10,000 paper consents per month, with subsequent manual scanning and risk of loss. Preparing audits took weeks.

The solution

A biometric-signature solution on tablets was deployed for admissions, emergencies and the OR, integrated with the EHR via HL7. Consent flows became templated and versioned.

"With Dokuflex we have eliminated paper in admissions and emergencies without losing clinical traceability. Audits are now instantaneous."
