Digitising medical records for a more sustainable healthcare system

Digitising paper medical records for a more sustainable healthcare system is nothing new – it's been part of the NHS long-term plan from the start. But with complexities and sensitivities of information contained within medical records, coupled with the overwhelming volumes of historical records in storage, there’s still a lot to be desired when it comes to meeting the 2023 paperless NHS target.  

With only 25% of NHS organisation estimated to be ‘paperless at the point of care’, the NHS must be prepared to meet these challenges to stay on track with digital transformation targets. 

Restore as a group work with 80% of NHS organisations and are expertly placed to help you on your medical record journey. From long-term storage, digitisation, secure destruction, removals, and technology recycling, we’re with you every step of the way when it comes to tackling your paperless targets.

When it comes to digitisation, we have the most highly specialised medical record scanning capabilities in the industry - and with a supportive, expert healthcare team.

How we help

With our fully outsourced medical record digitisation services, we’re helping healthcare organisations free up more space, get access to records faster and easier, and drastically improve their information governance and compliance.

Hospital care record scanning

Working with Head of Information Governance, Restore provide bulk archive scanning for hospitals. Often Trusts approach us because they want their patient records consistently stored, with appropriate access permissions, and the security of knowing loose filing cannot get lost.

However, project drivers can vary. We have worked with Directors of Estates wanting to digitalise to repurpose much needed physical space.

And we have worked with Heads of Directorates, scanning very specific medical records and uploading into a cost-effective record viewer.

The Restore group of companies work with over 80% of NHS Trusts with long term storage, digitisation, secure destruction, removals, and technology recycling.

Restore Digital have assisted many NHS Trusts deliver paper-lite programmes; providing large scale scanning, including digitisation for forward appointments, bulk archive scanning and day forward case note scanning (for inpatient and outpatient appointments). Supported with long term storage and upload into all leading EDMS vendors, for clinical access to digital records.

Our experience will minimise the burden, where possible, to your team, ensuring the current service provided by your Medical Records Team is not disrupted.

Live file scanning and storage

Sometimes budgets mean that a full archive scan is not possible. Therefore, it makes sense to move the inactive patient records into long-term storage and prioritise scanning the active records.

This enables you to bulk archive just the key priority records that will make the most difference to the patient and increase the projects ROI. Often, we will work with Restore Records Management to provide the full storage and scanning solution to our NHS customers.

Day forward scanning

As above, this is a way of deciding which files to scan and which to store to maximise your budget.

With day forward scanning the full archive is moved into storage. Our scanning sites all have an adjacent warehouse managed by Restore Records Management.

We then pull patient records daily, or weekly, according to your appointments and needs. Slowly the full archive is scanned over time but prioritised according to your upcoming appointment schedule. This maximises the immediate gains in a full digitisation project.

Case studies

Don’t just take our word for it – here are some of our healthcare projects

County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust

Initially an in-house solution to allow digitisation at speed, this project was then fully outsourced. Most records came into long-term storage, and were then scanned to forward appointments, allowing the Trust to release budget. Restore continue to process all day-forward notes, indexed to the document level, uploaded to EDMS.

Key deliverables:
No onsite libraries, digital consultations, paper-free.
