These new products, according to Canon, are specifically geared towards separate constituents within a healthcare office and the company's booth will display examples of how Canon's imageFORMULA document scanners and imageCLASS laser devices can address the unique needs of the different healthcare environments, such as billing, admissions, nurses' stations, back offices, physicians' offices and IT desks.
Attendees to the conference will also have the opportunity to experience a hands-on demonstration of the latest Canon interoperability and workflow solutions. Canon also plans on exhibiting successful interoperability with electronic health record applications at the Nuance booth, as well as in the HIMSS Interoperability Showcase, by sending scanned documents with an HL7 CDA from imageRUNNER Advance multifunction products using the embedded Nuance eCopy ShareScan v5 software.
According to a statement from Vice President and General Manager of Marketing and Business Imaging Solutions Group for Canon U.S.A Sam Yoshida, "Canon is dedicated to providing efficient imaging technology that plays a key role across all departments within a healthcare organization. As a leader in digital imaging, Canon is uniquely positioned to offer a diverse portfolio of solutions to streamline separate healthcare workflows, which will inevitably generate cost savings and, most importantly, improve patient care."
