Problems solved by technology

However, the manual process is often broken and can produce electronic image files that are not properly indexed or not indexed in a timely manner
Failure to provide timely information contained in electronic image files to the appropriate point of entry within the organization often creates billing delays, payment delays, and an overall increase in revenue cycle time

Embodiment Construction

[0011] Referring now to the drawings, in which like reference numerals indicate like parts, and specifically to FIG. 1, one aspect of the present invention is a system 20 for tasks related to generating electronic image files. System 20 includes an electronic document manager (EDM) 22 in communication with task engine 24 . As an aspect of its functionality, EDM 22 receives electronic image file (EIF) batch data 26 generated by scanner application 28 and scanner 30 and / or generated by a third party such as an electronic document clearinghouse. EIF batch data 32. Generally, EIF batches 26 and 32 contain one or more electronic image files in standard EIF format, such as jpg, tiff, bmp, gif, pdf, png, xpm. Examples of electronic image files include patient insurance cards, reminders, billing invoices, clinical records, and examination records such as x-rays. As described further below, EDM 22 shares information derived from EIF batches 26 and 32 with task engine 24 . Job engine...

Abstract

A system (20) for generating tasks related to electronic image files. System (20) includes an electronic document manager (EDM) (22) that is in communication with a task engine (24). EDM (22) received electronic image file (EIF) batches (26) generated by a scanning device application (28) and scanning device (30) and third-party generated EIF batches (32). As discussed further below, EDM (22) shares information derived from EIF batches (26) and (32) with task engine (24). In turn, task engine (24) generated EIF-related tasks. Another aspect is a method (170) that sorts or filters the electronic image files stored in EIF database (80) and returns either a list or images of the sorted or filtered files to first portion (120) of graphical user interface (90) for display to a user. Another aspect is a method (180) of generating tasks related to electronic image files.

Description

field of invention [0001] Generally, the present invention relates to electronic document management systems for managing electronic image files. In particular, the present invention is directed to systems and methods for tasks related to generating electronic image files. Background technique [0002] To manage the volume of data in Integrated Delivery Networks (IDNs), healthcare delivery organizations turn to complex data management systems or applications. These systems often include modules for maintaining or improving data quality. By improving data quality, ie, correcting errors and / or omissions in the data, revenue cycles for patient billing can be reduced and overall service to customers can be improved. In general, for each healthcare provider in the IDN, a task list is generated and added tasks for improving data specific to that particular provider. Users such as data processors are usually responsible for manipulating the tasks on the task list. [0003] For ...
