| YPSILANTI, MI - November 2005 - Freedom Imaging Systems, one of the nation’s leading data management and solutions developers, announces its arrival into the international market with the installation of its cutting-edge document imaging software at Diagnostic Laboratory Services (DLS) facilities in Guam.
With the addition of Freedom’s RICAR (Record Image Capture And Retrieval) solution, DLS employees in Guam can now instantly share laboratory requisitions with colleagues at the company’s Honolulu, Hawaii, site — eliminating costly delays due to time zone differences. Previously, it required two days for requisitions to ship between the islands. Now, with just a few clicks from their PC desktop, employees on either side of the International Date Line can access critical business information while increasing productivity, saving shipping costs and streamlining the billing process.
Freedom created the RICAR system — a powerful document management solution — to put healthcare and other organizations in control of their data. Once documents are scanned using RICAR, they can immediately be retrieved using a number of “look-up” criteria. Images are stored to DVD for permanent archiving, allowing companies to save money while reclaiming valuable office space. Plus, RICAR allows for automatic indexing via barcode recognition software. By eliminating manual paper handling, Freedom is helping DLS and other businesses improve their bottom line and operate more efficiently.
