3M Medical Document Management Systems


3M Medical Document Management Systems


Managing medical records in an acute care setting is becoming an increasing financial and logistical challenge, with the fact that hospital medical case notes are fundamental to safe and effective patient care and for subsequent clinical audit, research and medico-legal purposes.

As hospital Trusts determine how to address this increasing administration burden and consider moving to on-line electronic medical records (EMRs), one of their greatest challenges is to accurately and cost-effectively capture and index the large volumes of paper-based documentation generated before, during, and after care delivery along with integrating electronically generated information.

Please contact us to see how with over 25 years of healthcare experience and expertise, 3M Health Information Systems works as a trusted and stable business partner to provide proven EDM solutions with reliable implementation, training, and support services.

3M Document Management and Imaging Products

Document Imaging

3M™ ChartScan™ Software — This software combines a patented scanning process for cost-effective document imaging with online forms management to facilitate the on-demand generation of personalised patient forms, the capture of key documents and signatures at the point of service, and batch scanning with automated indexing for faster data access and improved productivity.

Record Access


3M™ ChartView™ Software — Aggregating both paper—based and electronic patient documents into a central online patient record, ChartView software enables enterprise-wide, secure, concurrent access to patient documentation from virtually anywhere, helping to increase productivity and deliver the right information at the right time. ChartView software is accessible via local network client, the Internet, portal and third-party clinical system integration.


3M™ Electronic Signature Authentication (ESA) Software — This software speeds chart completion time by allowing clinicians to view, edit and complete and electronically sign patient documents. 3M ESA features advanced mark-up tools for scanned images to help facilitate faster online completion of such scanned documents as tumour staging forms and other image forms typically not completed prior to discharge or scanning.
