Original Post
 
Hello all.  We are in the process of making our office paperless.  We are curious to know if anyone that works with Futura has gone paperless and if there were any serious gliches.  Futura says their software works well with a paperless office, but we're interested in any feedback from you.  We will also work with a local document imaging company to integrate an all-in-one office machine to scan images to patient files. 
 
Do you have any helpful hints?  Is Futura working well for you?  Are there pitfalls we need to watch out for?  Any help would be appreciated.

We have been trying to go paperless for the last several years with OPIE.  Realistically, I think it is questionable if it can be done completely.  The scanning process can be labor intensive unless you farm it out.  It also depends of the volume of patients you see.  I think a small practice 2-3 practitioners is easier than 10.
