Healthcare Document Management
The NHS and other Healthcare service providers are facing great challenges in providing a cost effective service within tight funding allowances.
Patient records management has been highlighted by the Government as a key area in which the NHS must become more efficient in order to assist in the reduction of waiting times and to reduce administration costs.
Records are a valuable resource because of the information they contain. That information is only usable if it is correctly recorded in the first place, is regularly up-dated, and is easily accessible when it is needed.
Information is essential to the delivery of high quality evidence-based health care on a day-to-day basis and an effective records management service ensures that such information is properly managed and is available:
- to support patient care and continuity of care
- to support sound administrative and managerial decision making,
- as part of the knowledge base for NHS services
- to meet legal requirements, including requests from patients
- under access to health records legislation
All NHS records are public records under the terms of the Public Records Act 1958 S.3(1)-(2). Chief Executives and senior managers of all NHS bodies are personally accountable for records management within their organisation.
