Case Study: Asante Health System

Paper is pervasive in all industries and departments. For companies that retain hard copies, finding specific information involves searching through file cabinets for a document that may have been misfiled or left on an employee's desk. In addition to slowing business processes, managing paperwork inhibits productivity, creates storage and office supply overheads, and delays customer service.

Asante Health System, a leading provider of healthcare services in Oregon and California, searched for a document management, imaging and workflow suite that would sidestep these pitfalls and deliver immediate benefits at minimal cost, with the flexibility for future expansion. Asante needed a product with intuitive functionality that is effective in clinical and administrative departments. Perceptive Software has a history of successful enterprise-wide implementations in the healthcare industry, and Asante decided ImageNow was the right fit for its ambitious IT plan.
