Summary
Why Healthcare is Moving Away from Paper-Based Approaches for Surgical Device Procurement
The Problems with Paper-Based Approaches
Many healthcare facilities have relied on paper-based processes when it comes to surgical device procurement. However, this approach can be time-consuming and inefficient, leading to a range of problems for both patients and providers. These include:
- Inaccurate data
- Slow transactional statuses
- Patient privacy concerns
- Inefficiencies in case casting, pre-approvals, and reimbursements
