The challenge

In the course of a hospital stay, patients are confronted with a large number of bureaucratic, organisational and data protection issues and have to sign a number of forms, such as treatment contracts, declarations of commitment for special classes, applications for rehabilitation or care allowance, data protection-related documents. A large number of paper documents have to be signed by the patients and administered accordingly by the hospital staff. This means printing them out, filing them correctly, scanning them and feeding them into the workflow, etc. This results in a large number of manual and error-prone activities that cost time and resources.

Solution

Thanks to e-signature, it is now possible to process patient forms in the hospital area completely digitised and without paper management, fully integrated into the connected IT systems. Printed and manually completed forms, which have to be laboriously scanned and archived, are now a thing of the past.

Windows-based client software, the e-sign Agent, is installed at the admission desk and is seamlessly integrated into the hospital information system (e.g. SAP IS-H). The generation of the form and content (PDF document) is triggered directly from the hospital information system and displayed to the patient either on a screen or directly on a signature pad in A4 in the original. The form is signed by hand directly on the signature pad (biometric, advanced signature). The data is then saved unalterably and the documents are filed directly with the case. All upstream and downstream process steps, such as transfer to the SAP-based HIS system and automatic archiving, are fully automated and digitalised.

A web service interface is available for connection to non-SAP-based systems, which enables flexible control of the e-Sign agent.

The use of the signature pad ensures that every person can sign electronically. It is not The person must already be in possession of a personal electronic signature (ID Austria, in Germany identity card with electronic ID, etc.).
