Looking after healthcare


Looking after healthcare
Patient care is the core of any Healthcare business. From reception through to discharge, patients rely upon the un-paralleled medical expertise. Yet that medical care is not delivered in isolation. Massive amounts of data are required to operate Healthcare businesses and support clinical decisions.

That is where Ricoh comes in. Ricoh is a global leader in the transformation of documents to actionable data. Our services and solutions are tailored to the needs of the healthcare sector. They will help streamline administrative processes, improve access to information, facilitate collaborative working and release medical resource to front-line care.

Increase access to information

Healthcare organizations have complex information flows. Data may be integrated into the healthcare system from many disparate sources, including fax and document images, data from outside systems and electronic health records from outside healthcare agencies. Data may need to be sent to outside agencies in a variety of formats to accommodate varying levels of technology adoption.
By digitizing patient records, streamlining information workflows and increasing mobility, Ricoh can ensure the exchange of information within hospitals is easy, efficient and secure, while centralizing all records. This provides ease of access for medical staff not only at their hospital or clinic, but also between different locations.
Cost savings and increased efficiency

Managing document intensive processes can be a challenge. Printing complete patient records for transfers to outside agencies may require output from numerous systems. Documents can be lost on large workgroup printers with many users and patients being served. Creating direct mailings is a complex process. Processing the information, printing out documents and directing the printed documents to the right location ties up valuable resource and can prove expensive.
Ricoh can help by managing document intensive processes for you. Depending on the requirements, we can provide printer output management, including a managed off-site service. Ricoh can assure responsibility for the existing in-house print room, mail room, scanning and archiving services. Either way, Ricoh will help you save time and money.
Security

Information security is an ever-increasing issue for hospitals. Protecting patient health and financial information is critical and, in many cases, required by local laws. Safeguarding patient confidentiality, Ricoh holds global ISO 27001 accreditation for information security management. We can help you create strategies to secure data, reduce opportunities for data breaches and provide a safer overall environment for healthcare information.
Ricoh’s healthcare printers and Multi-Function Devices combine everyday convenience with long lasting security. They are fast, affordable and effortlessly reliable. Depending on the model selected, they provide the means to print, copy, scan and share in colour and/or black-and-white, including security features, such as Locking Trays and Secure On-Demand Printing.

Which file formats are supported? Scan to USB/SD supports PDF/A, single-page TIFF, JPEG, PDF, and high compression PDFs, as well as multi page TIFF, PDF and high compression PDF file formats.

User authentication - RICOH

User authentication is a process for authorised users to validate that they are who they say they are, by some pre-arranged criteria. Typically, user authentication is required to allow access to electronic devices, networks, or services. A common user authentication process is accessing bank accounts at an automatic teller machine (ATM). This requires us to enter a bank-issued security card, followed by a personal identification number (PIN) at the keypad. Because user authentication is a part of daily life, the requirement for user authentication to access office automation equipment at work is a standard expectation. User authentication methods Supported Ricoh multifunction products (MFPs) provide four methods to control user access: Windows authentication LDAP authentication Basic authentication User codes.   Windows authentication Users are required to log on to the device using their existing Windows network username and password.
