What is QuickScan AI?
QuickScan AI is a HybridChart feature that reads a patient face sheet and extracts the key data automatically. A face sheet is the summary document that lists a patient’s demographics and insurance. QuickScan AI uses OCR, or optical character recognition, to read each field and place it into the matching field in HybridChart. It captures demographics, pulls in insurance details, and creates the patient chart without manual entry.
QuickScan AI Features
- Scans a paper or on-screen face sheet and extracts patient demographics and insurance.
- Builds the patient chart automatically, with no manual typing.
- HybridChart reports about 2.5 minutes saved per patient on complete registration.
- Included in core HybridChart at no extra cost. No add-on required.
- HIPAA compliant. Images are stored in the patient data tab, not your phone camera roll.
- Works with AutoLink Max to send demographics and insurance directly into your EHR.
The Problem
Practices lose time to manual registration. Rounding lists change constantly. Consult volume is high. Staff re-key patient data from face sheets, and that information often arrives incomplete or incorrect. The result is more administrative time, more room for error, and less time with patients. QuickScan AI targets that manual step.
How does QuickScan AI work?
The provider workflow is three actions: scan, review, add.
- Open QuickScan from the plus symbol at the top right of the HybridChart mobile app. The camera launches automatically.
- Capture the face sheet. Orientation can be horizontal or vertical. QuickScan begins reading and extracting the data immediately.
- Review the extracted demographics for accuracy. Edit any field, recapture if needed, and select the hospital.
- Select Add Patient and Keep on Service to add the patient to your list.
You can follow the process in real time. The app shows each stage, from receiving the data, to processing the image, to extracting the fields, to building the chart. The captured image is saved in the patient data tab for later reference.
What data does QuickScan AI capture?
Today QuickScan AI captures patient demographics and insurance details. HybridChart has stated that clinical data capture, including diagnoses and medications, is in development. See the roadmap section below.
How much time does QuickScan AI save?
HybridChart reports practices save about 2.5 minutes per patient on complete registration. The figure reflects time removed from manual data entry. Actual results depend on your patient volume and workflow.
Is QuickScan AI HIPAA compliant and secure?
Yes. QuickScan AI is HIPAA compliant. Images captured in the HybridChart app are never saved to your phone camera roll. They are stored in the patient data tab, where your team can access them later for reference.
