PaperHost Streamlines Data Capture

Data capture is historically one of the most labor intensive, time consuming and expensive components of a document management system. phADC services provide enhanced capabilities for lifting list-based or repeating data elements from documents. The process of operators capturing data from any document and verifying that the information they interpret is correct is very labor intensive with loss of integrity of the data.The phADC data capture solution can eliminate hours of costly manual document indexing and achieve a much lower cost per character captured. phADC can adapt to variable lengths of lists and adjust for skewing. Examples are insurance Explanation of Benefits (EOB) documents, remittance documents listing invoices paid, etc. The data output from PaperHost can be formatted as needed for input into our customers receiving application such as an accounts receivable system. That data can be transmitted between PaperHost and our customer using a variety of secure data transmission protocols.

Automatically Convert to PDF

Many companies have standardized their digital document libraries around the Adobe standard of PDF files.This gives the documents portability without requiring the user to have the underlying tool that created the document. phPDF converts scanned TIFF files or existing PDF files into highly compressed and web-optimized PDF files without loss of fidelity. The huge advantage to our customers is that the documents can be delivered faster since they are smaller. And by reading all the text on the page, the results allow the user to search for documents based on content and not just on hand-keyed index information.
