CHAPTER 2.0 UPLOADING PATIENT FILES
Uploading Requested Patient Files is the second step of the Request fulfillment process, after Processing a New Request. You will first upload the original Request document followed by all requested PHI.
Before you can upload Patient files, you must first select those Patient files outside of the ROI+ system (with the exception of cases where the Provider uses ABT’s MedXpress repository).
One or more of the following steps may be required, depending upon the number of separate medical record repositories used at your Provider location:
• • •
A high-speed Internet connection makes the Upload processing of selected files much more efficient. In fact, fast Internet connectivity is essential for uploading very large Patient files.
The Uploaded files will reside in the ROI+ repository, which enables both the Provider and the Requestor to view the files. However, it is the Provider who determines the access timeline for Requestors.
Although an infrequent requirement, additional middleware software may be needed to provide downloads in the
proper .TIF or .PDF file formats or to bundle multiple files into a single file format, depending on the export capabilities of the specific EMR/EHR being accessed.
AFTER selecting and saving all required Patient files from the Provider EMR/ EHR and any other repositories to your workstation, you will begin the Upload process inside ROI+.
Note: Most users will upload files from their desktop. Only those users accessing files
from ABT’s MedXpress repository will select files from the Patient Archive.
Convert paper or microfilm-based content into .TIF or .PDF digital file formats Export medical records from EMR/EHR system into .TIF or .PDF digital file formats Save all digital files to a folder on the ROI+ designated workstation
