 Local Washington hospital implements DocuWare to link information entered into their Health Information System, Meditech, with other crucial healthcare documents such as physician order summaries, lab results and registration documents. With one search, hospital staff has access to information at the point of care, delivering a higher quality of service to their patients. In addition, manual chart management time has been reduced now that transferring records to external coding companies has been automated.

Mason General Hospital & Family of Clinics (MGH&FC) serve the 45,000 people who live in Mason County, Washington year round, as well as the 200,000 seasonal residents. It is a 25 bed public hospital that is rated as a level 4 trauma center. Most level 4 trauma centers offer only ER triage and transfer to a larger facility, however MGH&FC offers a wider range of services including surgery, intensive care, pediatric care, obstetrics, diagnostic imaging, as well as respiratory care and chronic care for diabetes patients. The hospital's nine attached clinics further expand services to include: orthopedics, podiatry, women's health, pediatrics, family practice, internal medicine and optometry.
MGH&FC first used microfiche and later document imaging to store its records. When it came time to update their system, it was determined they wanted to do more than store old records so they focused on finding a solution to not only import documents and data from their current system, but was powerful enough to streamline their medical records processes throughout the hospital and address short-falls of the current system.
