CGI Expands Records Information Management Into Healthcare
CGI has expanded its electronic records information management system (eRIMS) to serve healthcare organizations. eRIMS helps healthcare
organizations comply with HIPAA and other regulations, improve operating efficiencies, respond to increasing document management
requirements and reduce administrative and supply chain costs.
The eRIMS solution combines CGI’s healthcare industry expertise and a proven technology to provide secure access to critical
patient information, improve patient registration processes, help reduce medical error rates, facilitate inter-departmental communications,
and meet payer authorization requirements.
eRIMS features
eRIMS digitally captures patient documentation, charts, lab results, referral information and billing and payment information and
provides secure 24x7 access to authorized personnel. This process helps integrate information from disparate systems, eliminates
physical routing of charts and documents and minimizes redundancies. eRIMS coordinates with HCFA, UB-92 and ERA forms to
automate inpatient and outpatient coding compliance. It also integrates the most up-to-date HIPAA regulations to achieve and
maintain HIPAA compliance.
CGI healthcare expertise
CGI’s healthcare consulting professionals provide expertise in regulatory compliance, clinical systems, reimbursement and finance,
operations and technology. Since 1990, the company has served more than five hundred healthcare clients throughout the U.S. and
Canada, including hospitals, health systems, managed care organizations, private insurance companies and governmental payers.
CGI initially developed its eRIMS technology solution to serve governmental clients in state and local municipalities, courts and justice
systems and health and human services, and adapted it to meet growing document management needs in the healthcare industry.
