Product Overview: Xerox Healthcare Solutions

Those regulations dictate more administrative tasks and seemingly never-ending documentation requirements. You devote time and money to dealing with massive amounts of paperwork—time and money that would be better spent accomplishing your most vital task, providing the best possible care to your patients.

In fact, according to a report by Thomson Reuters1, physicians in the U.S. spend nearly eight hours per week doing paperwork and each doctor employs approximately 1.66 clerical workers. Clearly, documents are at the center of many of the administrative tasks you must perform each day.

That same report reveals that "administrative inefficiencies" rack up huge losses in the healthcare industry. Annual losses are estimated to be somewhere between $100 billion and $150 billion. Further, a recent Xerox study2 showed that 43 percent of healthcare professionals blame those inefficiencies on an abundance of paper-based files, while 28 percent point to poor document routing and approval processes.
