Case Study: Florida Hospital, Fish Memorial achieves faster patient care and major cost savings with FormFast electronic forms

Florida Hospital, Fish Memorial - Customer Case Study

Florida Hospital, Fish Memorial is a 97‑bed acute care hospital near Orlando with about 600 staff that was struggling with Meditech’s default line‑printer forms process. Frequent impact‑printer maintenance, the need to load preprinted multipart stock, and printing downtime lowered productivity, increased operational costs, and threatened the hospital’s ability to scale with growing patient demand.

The MIS team adopted FormFast’s Meditech‑integrated electronic forms, deployed one form at a time to avoid workflow disruption and printed on HP LaserJet printers using plain paper. The change preserved existing user workflows, eliminated unscheduled printer downtime and paper‑stock handling, and sped turnaround—improving patient care. Measured savings include roughly $2–3K/year for radiology forms, about $10K/year for HCFA/UB92 claims, and about $12K/year for admissions forms, with a six‑month payback and strong user satisfaction.
