Frequently Asked Questions
Is this solution HIPAA compliant for processing patient information?
Yes, files are encrypted during processing and automatically deleted after conversion. No patient data is stored permanently on our servers, helping maintain HIPAA compliance requirements.

The system can process some handwritten text, but accuracy is limited compared to typed text. Handwritten patient forms may require manual review to ensure data accuracy.

Digital or clearly scanned patient intake forms, insurance claim forms, prior authorization documents, and structured medical records produce the most accurate results.
How accurate is the extraction for medical codes and insurance information?
