Case Study: MHS Data Center achieves centralized billing and secure document imaging with Fortra's Webdocs

HelpSystems Cures a Document Dilemma at Midwest Health Systems Data Center

MHS Data Center, serving 29 rural hospitals in Kansas and Nebraska, needed a document management system that could support centralized billing, integrate with MedSeries4 on IBM i, simplify scanning and indexing, and meet strict HIPAA security requirements. The organization chose Fortra’s Webdocs to solve its document access and workflow challenges across remote hospitals.

Fortra implemented Webdocs on IBM i and linked it directly to patient registration in MedSeries4, allowing clerks to verify insurance cards, scan new ones when needed, and have images automatically indexed without leaving the application. The rollout was completed in a single afternoon with no disruption to operations, improved centralized billing efficiency, strengthened single-sign-on security, and lowered total cost of ownership through unlimited desktop licensing.
